🎉 Nutrition and Hydration Week is turning 15! 🎉 And what better way to celebrate than with one of Britain’s greatest institutions… the humble scone! 🫖🧁 I’m delighted to announce the launch of our Nutrition and Hydration Week 15th Birthday Scone Competition — and we’re inviting health and social care teams across the UK and around the world to get creative. This is much more than a competition. It’s about celebrating the skill, creativity and innovation of the amazing people working in food and nutrition across health and social care, while creating ideas that could leave a lasting legacy and inspire good practice. There are two classes: 🥇 Class One – Scones Sweet and/or savoury recipes — regional and international variations are very welcome! 🌱 Class Two – Allergen-Free Scones Sweet and/or savoury, vegan recipes meeting all 14 recognised allergens as defined by the Food Standards Agency. And, of course, there will be judging on: ✔️ Meeting the class requirements ✔️ Costed recipes ✔️ Innovation and presentation ✔️ And perhaps most importantly… having fun! 📅 Closing date: Wednesday 18 November 2026 📧 Send your recipe and photographs to [email protected] Nutrition and Hydration Week runs from 15–21 March, with Wednesday 17 March once again putting Afternoon Tea firmly in the spotlight around the world. For 15 years, Nutrition and Hydration Week has been about highlighting, promoting and celebrating improvements in nutrition and hydration across health and social care — locally, nationally and globally. So, get your teams together, dust off those recipes, fire up the ovens and let’s see what you can create! 🌍Let’s make our 15th birthday one to remember. REMEMBER THE MAIN RULE: HAVE FUN – ENJOY – BE CREATIVE! Thank you to our special sponsors Jelly Drops Focus on Undernutrition Please share this with your colleagues, catering teams, chefs, dietitians, care teams, and anyone who might fancy taking up the challenge. #NutritionAndHydrationWeek #NHWeek #SconeCompetition #HospitalCatering #CareCatering #Nutrition #Hydration #Healthcare #SocialCare #Catering #AfternoonTea #FoodInnovation

Nutrition & Hydration Week… or 365 Days a Year? Nutrition & Hydration Week is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the incredible work taking place across health and social care. But it also raises an important question… Shouldn’t every week be Nutrition & Hydration Week? For our patients and residents, good nutrition and hydration isn’t an annual campaign—it’s a fundamental part of high-quality care, recovery, dignity and wellbeing. The week provides a valuable platform to share ideas, recognise great teams and inspire improvement. The real success, however, is when those improvements become part of everyday practice. Let’s continue to: ✔ Listen to patients and residents. ✔ Work together across clinical and catering teams. ✔ Keep improving food and drink services. ✔ Ensure nutrition and hydration remain a priority every single day. Because excellence isn’t measured by one week of activity—it’s measured by the experience we provide 365 days a year. #NutritionAndHydrationWeek #NHS #SocialCare #PatientExperience #CareQuality #HealthcareCatering #Leadership #NHWeek
