Penang Cheshire Home (Rumah Amal Cheshire)

Penang Cheshire Home (15 January 2011)


Penang Cheshire Home (GPS: 5.41843, 100.31336) is an organisation established to assist the physically disabled. Located along Babington Avenue, it was established in 1978, and is one of hundreds of Cheshire Homes set up since 1948.

The Penang Cheshire Home, as is all the Cheshire Homes around the world, is named after Geoffrey Leonard Cheshire (1917-1992), one of the most decorated British Royal Air Force pilots of the Second World War. However the war, and particularly perhaps the atomic bomb dropped at Nagasaki - at which he was the official British observer - spurred him in a different direction, to eventually found the Leonard Cheshire Disability, an organisation that provides support to disabled people throughout the world. It remains one of the thirty top British charities.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
