Our Founder

Group Captain
Lord Leonard Cheshire
VC,OM,DSO,DFC

The Home was started, in 1957, by the late Group Captain Lord Leonard Cheshire, V.C., O.M., D.S.O., D.F.C. at a derelict gun-site beside the sea at Telok Paku, Changi. This was the first Cheshire Home in the Far East region. The Singapore Cheshire Home is today the Asia Pacific headquarters to 9 such homes in the region. On 23 December 1957, the first two residents were admitted and seven joined the Home the following year. Over the years, it expanded into a complex with a capacity for 90 residents. The Home was relocated to temporary premises at Changi Creek when the site at Telok Paku was acquired by the Government in 1976.
