On the 16th September 1957, Mr. Minoo Patel, a businessman and resident of Jamshedpur gifted an area measuring 33.5 acres to the Chesire Homes India to be utilised for the objectives for which the Chesire Home Foundation was established by Group Capt. Chesire, to provide residential accommodation on the lines of a Home for the care, treatment, nursing and general well-being of men, women and children of all classes and communities who are chronically ill or are permanently disabled and who are without any means or resources or of limited means and resources.

Managed locally by a nucleus of dedicated persons, the R. P. Patel Chesire Home has grown in capacity over the years to accommodate as many as 60 inmates. To the originally existant main building that comprised the built-up area of this property, have been added dormitory wings to house girls and boys separately, classified into age groups that render their care easier.

Against the capacity of 60, present inmates 65 comprising both mentally and physically incurable cases and ranging in age from 7 years to 70 years, the older inmates being those who were initially admitted as infants.
