Winston Chu (徐嘉慎) (born 1940 in Hong Kong, China) graduated from University College London with a Bachelor of Laws degree. He was a lecturer at the Faculty of Law in the University of Hong Kong for years and served the Town Planning Board from 1988 to 1996. In 1994, he founded the Society for Protection of the Harbour as his mother Cissy Chu Fok Wing-yue inspired him to preserve the Victoria Harbour. From that time on, he worked together with his close partner Christine Loh (陸恭蕙) to protect the Harbour.

On 11 October 2003, Winston Chu announced his resignation as Chairperson of SPH because he received threats against him and his family's personal safety. Then, Christine Loh became the new Chairperson of SPH. After resignation, Winston Chu continued to provide legal advice to SPH and support the preservation of the harbour.
