Dr. Lucy Lord, MBE, is a founding Partner of Central Health Medical Practice and an Obstetrician who has been a key player in Hong Kong’s healthcare sector for the past 30 years.
She is the Founder and present Executive Chair of Mind HK. In January 2023, Lucy was awarded an MBE in the UK’s New Year Honours List “for services to Health in Hong Kong”.

In 2014, Dr. Lucy Lord, in collaboration with other partners and doctors at Central Health, formalised the practice’s pro bono work by establishing a Section 88 registered charity. Known as the Patient Care Foundation (PCF), the charity continues to serve as Central Health’s charitable arm. From the beginning, PCF identified four vulnerable groups of people and pledged to improve their access to appropriate medical care, support, and resources. These groups include children requiring hospital stays who were being separated from their parents; high-risk pregnant mothers-to-be; marginalized groups, such as refugees and migrant domestic workers without access to healthcare; and individuals experiencing mental health issues.

Alongside Dr. Rulin Fuong, Dr. Lucy played a pivotal role in the launch of Mind Hong Kong (Mind HK). Initially developed under the PCF umbrella, with the generous support of Mind UK, Mind HK is dedicated to enhancing the mental well-being of Hong Kong. It achieves this through its frontline services, training programmes, campaigns, and comprehensive bilingual mental health information based on the Mind HK website. Its resources support individuals and their families coping with mental health challenges and assist other charities involved in similar missions.

In 2017, PCF, backed by the HKJCCT, co-organised an international mental health conference, where Mind HK was formally launched. Mind HK became an independent Section 88 registered charity in 2019. Today, Mind HK continues to expand its reach, working on multiple projects to further its impact within the community and work towards its vision to ensure no one in Hong Kong has to face a mental health problem alone.
