Why would anyone spend a whole day walking across Singapore? 🤔

For Iver Chua and Derrick Neo, SLEC Miles of Smiles 2025 was more than a walking challenge. It was a chance to spend meaningful time with loved ones, connect with others and create memories they will cherish, all while supporting our elders.

And we’re doing it all over again — bigger, bolder and with more ways to move! 🎉

From 1 September to 30 November, walk, run or hike 100km, or cycle 300km. Every kilometre brings us closer to a shared goal: creating, caring for and celebrating memories with our elders, so that every stage of life can be filled with meaning and joy.

“When they perform, they discover a sense of pride and joy. The audience – their children and grandchildren – clap for them and look up to them,” shared Gabriel Kho, SLEC Senior Community Engagement Associate.

As a DrumFIT instructor, Gabriel has seen how active agers grow in confidence through the programme. SLEC team members will first guide active agers through the basics and over time, they will take the lead! They will brainstorm together, create their own choreography and step up to teach the moves to their peers.

This sense of leadership is at the heart of how DrumFIT empowers our active agers. Mdm Radiah, for example, has created and performed her own choreography on several occasions, sharing her moves with fellow active agers and inspiring them to give it a try.

Do you remember a time when there were no MRTs? Mr Lim Hua can!

In fact, he is a retired HDB enforcement officer who spent a decade helping Singaporeans move from kampongs to HDBs. These relocations made way for new infrastructure like the MRT lines we see today!

After years facilitating Singapore’s development, he now spends his days exploring the nation he helped build. He often joins outings and activities at SLEC Active Ageing Centre (Care) @ Bishan, and takes courses on AI so he can learn new skills.

This year’s National Day theme, “Majulah Singapura, Go Beyond!”, is a call to keep moving forward and dreaming big. Mr Lim embodies that spirit of progress. He not only helped pave the way for the Singapore we know and love today, but is still learning and growing alongside the nation.

From all of us at SLEC, Happy National Day, Singapore!

It is a privilege to journey alongside elders like Mr Lim, who had a hand in building this nation. Join us in showing your appreciation, drop a ❤️ in the comments below!

“The variety of speakers with different backgrounds [shared] from a wealth of experience. You can hear their heart and compassion in the work that they do,” shared a SLEC CommCare Symposium 2025 participant.

Last year, participants came together over two days to learn, exchange ideas and gain fresh perspectives.

This year, we’re back with 16 speakers to share their expert insights on two topics: Wound Care and Dementia and Spirituality.

Participants can look forward to courtroom style debates that explore different ways to manage complex wounds and insights from the faith community to discover how spirituality can transform dementia support.

Whether you’re caring for a loved one or just interested to advance your practice, join the conversation at the 5th SLEC CommCare Symposium!

Preparing the community care workforce of tomorrow starts with stronger partnerships today.

SLEC signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Ngee Ann Polytechnic, witnessed by Dr Janil Puthucheary, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Education & Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment.

This partnership brings together SLEC's expertise in community care and Ngee Ann Polytechnic's strengths in education to create meaningful learning opportunities beyond the classroom. Through internships, service-learning and collaborative projects, students will gain real-world experience while making a positive impact in the lives of seniors and the communities we serve.

This MOU reflects our shared commitment to nurturing the next generation of community care professionals. Over the years, SLEC has built strong partnerships with almost a dozen Institutes of Higher Learning across Singapore, strengthening the talent pipeline and inspiring more young people to pursue purposeful careers in community care.

Building the future of care is a shared responsibility, and we look forward to journeying alongside our partners to develop a workforce that is competent, confident and compassionate.

One such example of a youth inspiring change is Naufal Rosli, who first joined SLEC as an intern before returning as a full-time staff under our Community-based services. His journey reflects how meaningful early experiences in community care can spark a lifelong passion for serving elders.

"From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being the angels that you are," shared Adj A/Prof (Dr) Kenny Tan, CEO of SLEC.

Over the past week, we celebrated our Nurses and Care Staff across SLEC Residences @ Ang Mo Kio and Punggol.

The celebrations featured a warm address by Dr Tan, alongside energetic performances by our care teams.

This year, we also presented the Nightingale Award to recognise individuals whose compassion, dedication and professionalism have made a lasting difference in the lives of our elders.

A big thank you to our sponsors Team Solidarity, Robot-Coupe and Sia Huat for making the celebrations even more special.

To Nurses and Care Staff in SLEC and beyond, thank you for your dedication and the friendship you bring to those under your care. Happy Nurses' and Care Staff Day from all of us at SLEC! 💚

When reflecting on one of the most memorable moments in her career, one elder immediately comes to Hafidah's mind.

The elder had a complex wound that was slow to heal. Recognising that negative pressure wound therapy could offer a better path to recovery, Hafidah and her team introduced this advanced treatment.

At that time, this was uncommon in nursing homes as it required specialised knowledge and trained clinicians. Drawing upon her experience, Hafidah stepped up and trained her team to support the treatment. From being unable to sit up comfortably, the elder was eventually able to sit up again and enjoy a more active daily life!

With Nurses Day around the corner, we’re celebrating nurses like Hafidah who go the extra mile.

When she’s not making her rounds in the SLEC Residence @ Ang Mo Kio, Hafidah enjoys teaching fellow professionals more about effective wound treatment as a trainer under SLEC CommCare Academy.

Join us at our annual SLEC CommCare Symposium to learn from experts like her: https://commcaresymposium.slec.org.sg

What does virtual reality have to do with an opening ceremony? They’re actually part of experiential learning at SLEC!

They were just some of the interactive experiences showcased during the opening of SLEC CommCare Academy @ Devan Nair Institute for Employment and Employability. We were privileged to have Mr Tan Kiat How, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Digital Development and Information & Ministry of Health celebrate this with us.

Guided by the theme "Building People for Care and Building Care for People", the academy nurtures both current and future talent to build sector capability.

Through immersive experiences like LifeLab™, internships and collaborations with Institutes of Higher Learning, the academy offers early exposure to community care for youths. Students can look forward to SLEC’s upcoming Senior Care Centre at Temasek Polytechnic: the first of its kind in an Institute of Higher Learning!

The academy also supports sector development and upskilling efforts for adults, including mid-career switchers.

As we continue upskilling the sector, we’re grateful to everyone who joined us to mark this milestone.
