In the UK, older adults may access nutritional support through various services, including:

  • Community meal services (e.g. Meals on Wheels)
  • Day centre or care home meal provision
  • NHS or local authority services for those identified as at risk of malnutrition
    Eligibility is typically based on age (generally 65+), health status, care needs, and local council assessments. Contacting your local authority or GP is the best way to find out what support is available in your area.
