Since 1999, Apex Harmony Lodge (AHL) has been, and still is, a home away from home for our residents with dementia. We have stayed true to the core belief that each PWD is a gift to us, and deserves to enjoy a positive quality of life. What initially began as a purpose-built home for persons with dementia is now a community committed to empowering lives affected by dementia.

At the Lodge, this means creating a resort-like experience for residents at all stages of dementia.

Care Corner Singapore Ltd was founded in 1981, in a climate of changes in the early 1980s, as economic competition in the region intensified and the rift between the wealthy and the lower-income in particular the Chinese blue-collar workers, widened. Rev Tan Tien Ser and a group of passionate individuals believed that these marginalised people with lower income and little opportunities for a formal education could be helped to realise their potential and become more competent and fulfilled persons. Through a series of early outreach initiatives, Care Corner has evolved into an organisation offering a wide range of programmes and services delivered through various social service centres located island-wide. In a bid to stay relevant to the needs of the community, Care Corner has continuously strived to offer new and innovative programmes to support those in need and the less privileged.
