Bluebird Care The Vale of Glamorgan is supporting this year’s Nutrition & Hydration Week which runs from 13 – 19 March 2017.

Bluebird Care The Vale is hoping to raise awareness of good nutrition and hydration and promote the importance of maintaining healthy eating within The Vale. Nutrition & Hydration Week aims to highlight and promote nutrition and hydration locally, nationally and even globally.

As part of this awareness week Nutricia, an organisation who offer advice on advanced medical nutrition, have put together a fact sheet highlighting what a healthy diet entails and tips to improve nutrition. Some of these tips include having plenty of starchy foods, along with fruit and vegetables as well as focusing on foods that are a good energy source.

Huw Owen, director of Bluebird Care The Vale of Glamorgan, commented:
“Nutrition and hydration are very important issues in society and as a care provider, it is important that we do all we can to support and educate our community on these issues. We encourage everyone to visit the campaign website and download the factsheet which contains key advice on nutrition.”
