Cheshire Home, Chung Hom Kok (Chinese: 舂磡角慈氏護養院; Cantonese Yale: Jūnghamgok Wuhyéuhngyún) is a public hospital in Chung Hom Kok, Hong Kong.
It was set up by Lieutenant Colonel Nigel Watson after he visited Hong Kong in June 1961 and noticed the need for such homes in the colony.
The Cheshire Foundation Homes for the Sick were started in 1948 as a mission for the relief of suffering all over the world, after Group Captain Leonard Cheshire, a British Royal Air Force pilot during the Second World War and recipient of the Victoria Cross.
[1] The Cheshire Home in Chung Hom Kok was opened in October 1961,[2] established at the site of the former Royal Artillery camp, granted by the Government of Hong Kong.
Patients were accommodated in the headquarters building formerly occupied by the gunners, and staff quarters were situated in the adjacent Nissen huts.
