Lotus Eldercare Adaptive Fashion (L.E.A.F)

LEAF is the brainchild of Dr Tan Jit Seng. He was shopping one day and saw a Mothercare shop. He was thinking that there should be a shop selling clothes for the elderly too. He began researching on the internet and realised that there are clothes adapted for elderly or disabled who have problems wearing clothes on their own. However, these clothes are made for the foreign market and not too suitable for our local climate.

Dr Tan then decided to start his line of fashionable adaptive clothes for the elderly or disabled. The clothes will be suited for the local climate and fashionable to give confidence to the wearers.

LEAF collaborates with a fashion designer and a dressmaker with to create functional and fashionable clothes. We also gather information from Occupational Therapists, our dependent patient's carers and patients themselves.

We are hoping to start producing clothing for bed bound patients soon. Check back this space for more updates!
