born in cheshire, england, group captain geoffrey leonard ...report+2016-2… · born in cheshire,...

Born in Cheshire, England, Group Captain Geoffrey Leonard Cheshire, (Victoria Cross, Order of Merit, Distinguished Service Orders & Two Bars, Distinguished Flying Cross) was a highly decorated Royal Air Force (RAF) pilot during the Second World War. But after serving as the British observer on the Nagasaki nuclear attack he resigned from the air force and founded Leonard Cheshire Disability.

On 22 May 1948, Leonard Cheshire took a dying man, who had nowhere else to go, into his home. With no money, Leonard nursed the man himself. They became friends and this one act of kindness saw many more people coming to Leonard for help, people who were keen to share a home with others and all chip in together.

Almost without him having to try, by the summer of 1949 his home of Le Court, in Hampshire, had 24 residents with complex needs, illnesses and impairments. As word spread, referrals came from the new NHS hospitals already struggling to cope with waiting lists of people needing urgent care.Disabled people were at the very bottom of the list of NHS priorities at the time, often left to manage on their own, or rely on others to help them get through each day. As Le Court became established, people from different parts of the UK and then the world began to rally in response to local need for similar homes in their communities. The charity now known as Leonard Cheshire Disability had begun.

By 1955, there were five homes in the UK and the first overseas project had begun outside Mumbai in India. The 1960s saw rapid expansion and by 1970 there were over 50 services in the UK, five in India and activities in 21 other countries around the world. Now well established as a pioneering provider of care services, Leonard Cheshire Disability began to diversify and the early 1970s saw it trialling a care in the community project on the UK south coast. Rolled out successfully, support at home became one of the many services now offered by Leonard Cheshire Disability.

The year 2017 is celebrated to mark the centenary of our founder Late Group Captain Leonard Cheshire. As part of this, an international conference on “Access to livelihoods” for persons with disabilities was organized by Cheshire homes India – Bangalore Unit in Bangalore on 13th June 2017.

It gives me great pleasure to present the annual report for 2016-17

Carrying forward Group Captain Leonard Cheshire’s dedication to people withdisability, Cheshire Homes India, Bangalore Unit continues to positively impact thelives of people with disabilities.

The Old Airport Road HomeTo improve the quality of academic performance of our young girls we have adopteddifferent methodologies• Formed a education subcommittee to keep a regular check on their performance• Employed a Personal tutor for our girls. She spends a 2 hours of quality time

every day helping our deaf girls in their studies. She is a specialized teacher with agood grasp of sign language

• Set up a new study room which stimulates young minds and creates greaterinterest in studies

We are following the universal truth – “a healthy mind resides in a healthy body”. Wehave taken lot of initiatives to maintain their physical health. With the funds wereceived from Bosch we have bought a lot of sports equipment, which includescycles, basketball and badminton gear. It is not only refreshing for the girls but alsoraises the morale of our Cheshire team

It is not just the needs of the children that we meet. We make sure they don’t feelhomesick in our Home! We fulfill their wishes as any dutiful parent would do. Wecollected wishes from them during “The joy of giving week” – from a very small wishof having a new ribbon to owning a cycle of their own. We fulfilled these wishes withthe support of individual donors. It gave us immense pleasure to see the joy on theirfaces and it made us feel the purpose of our organization was met and the veryexistence of the Homes was worthwhile.

Whitefield HomeAccommodating 19 elderly and disabled women, the Whitefield Home continues toprovide the best care in health and recreational activities for the residents. We makethem feel loved and cared for by providing them with new blankets and shawls tokeep them warm, bright sarees and night gowns of their choice which makes themlook smart. To meet their needs a bigger water purifier was installed. We havecreated a FAMILY outside of a family for them by creating a platform for them tointeract with young volunteers. It is a learning for the youngsters and someone to talkfor the residents.

Cheshire Livelihood Resource Centre (CLRC)As we continue to help the people with disabilities (PWDs) to unleash their potentialto enter a promising future, CLRC achieved remarkable progress in 2016-2017. Outof the 476 youth with disabilities trained, we found employment for 357 youth,reaching a 75 percent placement rate. Notable highlights were: providingaccommodation for 144 candidates, conducting 21 special recruitment drives,arranging 2 job fairs and working with 1000+ volunteers.

It is not just a career opportunity that we provide, we ensure the candidate andemployer are comfortable with each other by extending a strong post placementsupport. We keep in touch with the candidates on a regular basis and there havebeen several instances where we have helped them to get a better job with ahigher salary

PWDs were considered a liability by the family. By making them financiallyindependent we have slowly turned the tables. There is a role reversal now andPWDs have become pillars of support to their parents.

We have made considerable efforts to secure funding to carry on smoothly withour activities. We are interacting with American India Foundation, Eurofins andSales Force from whom we expect to raise 40Lakhs.

Finance: Our treasurer, Ms. Rani Murthy has shared our financial position andthe fundraising front, which looks promising with the continuity of our fundingpartners – Leonard Cheshire Disability, UK, American India Foundation,Eurofins, Sales Force and individual donors. I must place on record the yeomanservice rendered by Mr Chandy Koshy our Ex Treasurer in locating andmotivating a number of donors to support our activities.

Appreciation: We celebrate the success each achieves, and we are thrilled byevery barrier that is removed to welcome PWDs into the mainstream. I amthankful to the dedicated Board, our funding partners, committed staff, devotedvolunteers, and caring community members who share our commitment toensure opportunities for all.

My appreciation to our legal team, ably assisted by Air Vice Marshal R KBatha(Retd), who handled the land case of Old Airport Road Home with theutmost vigour and we have won the case in the lower court. The plaintiffs havenow appealed to the Karnataka High Court. We have not received any summonsas yet.

My special thanks to Mrs Rani Murthy, Dr Geeta Bai, Ms Yasmin Master, MrChandy Koshy and Mr Hegde for their guidance and support.

I must thank the Daughters of Charity for their dedicated service at ourWhitefield Home and Mr Phanindra and Ms Lalitha for their efforts and supportin looking after the residents of our Old Airport Road Home.

CLRC team of Anuradha, Srinath, Suma, Syed, Vijay, Devappa and Darshanhave continued to perform outstanding work in progressing the objects of theLivelihood Resource Centre. I convey my thanks to all of them.
