Mildred Dibden was a missionary with the evangelical Anglican Bible Churchmen's Missionary Society. She first came to Hong Kong in 1931, but had to go home because of a near-fatal bout of malaria. She had noticed the plight of Hong Kong's abandoned children, and was determined to help them, so she returned to the Colony in 1936 and opened orphanges in various locations including Cheung Chao. In 1940 she moved into an estate in Fanling and kept this home open, with the assitance of Ruth Little and Chinese staff, throughout the Japanese occupation.

Henry Ching writes:

She was Eurasian and was in HK during the occupation (she, like the vast majority of Eurasians, was not interned).

She was related to 4871 Pte Leslie A. Fox of No.3 Company HKVDC. He evaded capture and joined the BAAG’s China Unit and eventually the Chindits. Unfortunately, I cannot now recall if she was his sister or aunt.
