Singlife, a prominent financial services company in Singapore, has unveiled the Singlife Caregiver Support Pack, designed to alleviate the emotional and mental burdens faced by caregivers. This initiative, launched in partnership with Diabetes Singapore, Home Nursing Foundation, Singapore Cancer Society, and the Singapore National Stroke Association, aims to provide comprehensive support to 200 caregivers from 1 September to 31 December 2025, with the programme extending throughout 2026.
The Caregiver Support Pack offers several key benefits, including six one-hour clinical counselling sessions with licenced professionals, access to a personalised self-care platform with a 24/7 helpline, and a one-year Group Personal Accident Coverage with a payout of $11,000 (S$15,000) in case of accidental death or total and permanent disability. This initiative follows Singlife’s July 2025 white paper, which highlighted the significant emotional and economic toll of caregiving in Singapore.
Helen Shen, Group Head of Products at Singlife, emphasised the importance of supporting caregivers, stating, “As a homegrown company, we recognise that caregivers are the unsung heroes of our nation, often putting their own needs last.”
The programme also includes educational sessions and community outreach initiatives, with Singlife staff volunteering to support these efforts. The collaboration aims to raise awareness and provide essential resources to caregivers, ensuring they are not alone in their journey. This initiative underscores Singlife’s commitment to addressing the challenges of long-term care and supporting the wellbeing of caregivers in Singapore.
