Food

Our cooks have many years of experience catering for the elderly and service users with dementia. They strive to make sure that each service user has a say in what appears on the menu and that our food is cooked in a traditional homely manner.

Our cooks have qualifications in nutrition, so catering for specialist diets is no problem. They also love baking, so there are cakes available daily for those service users who fancy a treat.

We also arrange takeaway nights for our residents where we order in food like fish and chips, Chinese, Indian or Pizza. We let families know so that they can join us for the takeaway.
