Nellsar Care Homes working with the National Association of Care Catering

Keeping a focus on the nutritional care of our residents

The National Association of Care Catering (NACC) unites, supports and represents everyone working in and associated with catering in the UK care sector. For more than 30 years, the NACC has been committed to raising standards of care catering and championing the positive impact nutrition, hydration and mealtimes have on the physical and emotional health and wellbeing of the elderly and vulnerable in care settings.

Nellsar’s Nutrition and Wellness Manager, Leni Wood joined the NACC earlier this year, following a meeting with NACC Deputy Chair, Sophie Murray, who was running a workshop on Nutrition & Hydration for the elderly.

The NACC works at the cutting edge of care catering and offers members the most current information, network opportunities and help to bring about good practice. They are committed to educating and advising those responsible for food provision in care settings with a common goal of raising standards through meaningful food experiences.

Describing the benefits of NACC membership for Nellsar, Leni comments “We now have access to exceptional resources through the members’ site which provides us an opportunity to stay ahead of the curve.”

Leni, together with our team of Chefs and Nutrition Champions, is dedicated to improving nutritional knowledge and practises throughout our Homes and sharing these ever-growing skills across Nellsar. Positive change, in the best-interest of all residents, is taking place – and the added value of our NACC membership will be a hugely beneficial support in continuing this.
