Noble's Hospital is recognising Nutrition and Hydration Week this week.
Fronted by National Safety First - events across the British Isles aim to highlight the importance of ensuring people are eating and drinking properly.
Staff at Noble's will attempt to increase awareness for older hospital patients, those in the community and people living in care homes.
The dietetic department is also encouraging other staff to ensure patients consume food and liquid in small amounts as frequently as possible.
