Humble beginnings
In the last quarter of 20th century when people suffering from leprosy where considered as a menace to the society, and these poor people had very few means to sustain themselves, capuchin friars along with the SFO members decided to rehabilitate them in a dignified manner, The land was procured towards the west side of wadakkancherry railway station. It was a desolate place with no access to the vehicles, sharing one of its boundaries with forest area.
Small huts were erected along with a dispensary and IP ward for the leprosy patients. Initially there were 42 leper families, friars had build a play ground auditorium for their recreation activities.
