We all love a snack!😁Combining carbs, protein, fibre and healthy fats keeps you full for longer and supports steady blood sugars. Try: apple slices + peanut butter OR wholegrain cracker + guacamole + boiled egg. Balanced, tasty, and diabetes‑friendly. #NHWeek2026 #SnackyTuesday 🍎

Friday is about Every Contact Counts! Whether you’re a nurse, GP, pharmacist, dietitian, social worker, or care home staff member, your role is vital. From mealtimes to medication reviews, outpatient clinics to home visits – every contact counts. #MAW2025

💧 Thirsty Thursday #MAW2025 💧 Hydration is vital in preventing malnutrition. Frequent sips and nourishing fluids can support people with their hydration and weight. People with dysphagia are at higher risk of dehydration - Speech and Language Therapists (SLT) can assess and support with this.

#MAW2025 Tuesday: Safe discharge matters! At MKUH we help prevent malnutrition by ensuring patients leave with: ✔️ Food optimisation & fortification leaflets ✔️ Oral nutrition supplement supply/prescription ✔️ Follow-up care arranged (e.g., outpatient appointments)

Over 11M people in England are aged 65+, with 1M+ at risk of malnutrition. It’s not an inevitable part of ageing — it’s both a cause & consequence of ill health, affecting physical & mental health. 📽️ Lyn’s story highlights the risks & impact. youtu.be/f1ERiWm5aBA?... #UKMAW2025
