有鉴于新加坡人口急速老化，洪茂诚在国会上建议，为乐龄人士提供常年社区体检服务。

政府于是设立了一个乐龄助行基金，为年长者提供津贴，帮助他们购买年长者需要的东西，例如轮椅、老人椅、助听器、老花眼镜、床垫等等。

The Government has thus set up the Seniors Mobility and Enabling Fund , to subsidise the purchase of equipment needed by our seniors , such as wheelchairs , hearing aids , special reading glasses and mattresses .
