Rabbi Elchanan (Chuna) Halperin (1922-2015) was the Av Beit Din of Radomyśl and grandson of the Divrei Chaim from both parents. He established the Beit Midrash and Yeshiva in Golder’s Green, London, and served as president of the United Haredi Community Association in London. He was the in-law of many gedolim of his generation, including father-in-law to: Admor of Chernobyl, Ga’avad of Makova in Kiryat Ata, the Admor of Nadvorna-Haifa and the Rosh Yeshiva of Tshebin Rabbi Yosef Moshe Schneerson, shlita. He was known as a figure of the ancient kind of chassidut, a remnant of earlier generations.
