St Peter Port

Story

Founded in 1987 by a group of local islanders who recognised the need for a dedicated care facility. The property Shorncliffe was purchased and refurbished from a hotel into a care home. Part of the wider Leonard Cheshire network historically.

Guernsey Cheshire Home is a registered charity (CH355) providing full-time residential, respite, and day care for islanders with serious physical disabilities, including those living with multiple sclerosis, spinal injuries, strokes, and motor neurone disease. Operating from Shorncliffe on the Rohais in St Peter Port since 1987, it houses 11 full-time residents and accepts respite visitors. Entirely reliant on fundraising and donations, the charity operates on an annual budget of approximately £1.5 million. —
