A Worcester care home has invited the community to join them for a "berry" fun healthy eating workshop.

Care UK's Perry Manor, on Charles Hastings Way, is keen to share its team's knowledge on healthy eating, particularly for those in later life or living with diabetes.

Attendees will have the opportunity to sample healthy twists on classic recipes and chat with the care home's head chef, Nicola Burton.

The culinary team will also provide information on symptoms, causes, and the impact of high blood sugar levels.

They will discuss Public Health England's 'Eatwell plate' and recommend options from each food group.

The session aims to provide family carers and those living with diabetes with a space to ask questions and learn practical tips and simple food swaps.

Guests will also have the chance to share experiences with other people living with diabetes in a relaxed group setting.

Care UK has also created an online advice hub, which explores how appetites and tastes change with age, features expert advice from nutritionists, and offers a selection of delicious and quick recipes to try.

Katherine Matthews, the care home's manager, said: "We can’t wait for the local community to join us for our healthy eating workshop.

"Here at Perry Manor, we’re passionate about raising awareness and reducing misconceptions around nutrition and hydration in older age.

"It can be challenging to know how best to support your loved one – which is why we’re inviting the community to join our talented head chef and culinary team who are keen to share their expertise.

"We’re looking forward to welcoming some new faces and old friends for a chat over some delicious and nutritious food."
