Community Care Day

Charity Transparency Award 2023 Lions Home was once again been recognised with the Charity Transparency Award for our exemplary disclosure and transparency practices. Chairman, Past District Governor Steven Seah (BBM), received the award on behalf of the Home at the awards ceremony on 21 November 2023.

Recognition Night 2023

On 1 and 3 November 2023, Lions Home For The Elders celebrated Community Care Day at Lions Home Bishan and Lions Home Bedok respectively. During the celebrations, staff from various quality improvement committees were recognised for their efforts and contributions to service and quality excellence. We also held karaoke sessions at both Homes where staff had a fun-filled afternoon singing their hearts out.

We were privileged to have our Guest of Honour, Deputy Prime Minister and Coordinating Minister for Economic Policies, Mr Heng Swee Keat, grace the occasion, as well as present the H K Lau awards, at the Lions Home Recognition Night 2023 on 8 December at the Singapore Island Country Club. A total of 73 Excellence, Merit, Friends of Lions Home awards were presented to Lions Clubs of Singapore, individuals and organisations for their equally invaluable contributions.

The CRM is a national award awarded to those who participated directly in the national fight against COVID-19, and also serves to recognise and pay tribute to the many thousands whose contributions and sacrifices saw us through the pandemic.
