About this service

This service provides assessment, advice and treatment for dietary issues.

We support individuals with a wide range of needs, including those with long-term conditions, complex nutritional requirements, or those receiving palliative care.

  • Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) colleagues
  • Palliative care teams
  • Local hospices
  • Community nurses and healthcare professionals
  • The North West Surrey Care Home Support Team to provide training and support to care homes across NWS
