The Home was opened in 1983 during the International Year of the Child as the result of a survey carried our by a local group at the instigation of the Capuchins order. It is managed by a Management Board of local people on a voluntary basis and is run by the Presentation Sisters who have an agreement with the Management Team that two sisters will work in the home. The Home has a capacity of fifty five and has a staff of twenty four which includes a resident nurse and special education teacher. Cheshire Home is the only one of its kind in Western Province and as such has a huge catchment area. Parents and children travel mostly on foot from outlying areas for a number of days to reach Mongu.
