Our Story.
Honoring the Legacy of Lilian Davis.
​
The Lilian Davis Group, officially established in 2016, finds its origins in a story that began in 1948. It is a story rooted in love, compassion, and the unyielding strength of the human spirit.
​
In 1948, a young girl found herself in the care of a woman affectionately known as 'Mama.' This arrangement came about because the girl's mother, burdened by a number of children, as well as financial and emotional difficulties, could not care for her. Tragically, 'Mama' passed away suddenly, leaving the young girl devastated and alone once again. On the day of 'Mama's' death, she felt unwell and asked the child to continue to school on her own. When the girl returned home, she found her beloved caregiver had passed away. The world seemed to crumble around her.
​
As she sat on the street, heartbroken and crying, a tall, beautiful woman with warm, loving eyes approached her. With outstretched arms, she said, "Never mind, my love. I know how you feel, and I will look after you." This woman was Lilian Davis, who became the girl's guardian angel. Lilian Davis nurtured and cared for her, providing food, clothing, education, emotional support, and spiritual guidance. Under Lilian's care, the girl and her first three children were loved and made to feel secure, treated with the same unyielding love and care as her own children.
​
In 1964, the young girl moved to the United Kingdom to create a better life for Lilian Davis and her children. She worked tirelessly as a nurse, dedicating herself to helping others, just as Lilian had done for her. Despite her efforts to bring Lilian to the UK, Lilian's health deteriorated due to multiple strokes, leaving her unable to speak, travel, use her limbs, or look after herself. This painful reality served as a poignant reminder of the importance of treating everyone with care, love, and affection.
​
The girl's three children were brought to the UK to start anew, carrying with them the legacy of Lilian Davis – a testament to selfless love and care for others. Lionel Grant is one of the three children and has formed the Lilian Davis Group dedicated to her memory. Every action and achievement of the company stands as a beacon of how we must serve and support the young, inspiring selflessness and uplifting others to be their best.
​
The Lilian Davis Group embodies the spirit of its namesake, ensuring that every child in our care feels loved, secure, and inspired to reach their full potential. We are committed to serving with the same dedication and compassion that Lilian Davis exemplified, honoring her legacy by making a positive impact on the lives of children and the community. Our mission is to create a nurturing environment where love and support guide every child towards a brighter future, just as Lilian Davis did for one little girl so many years ago.
