Food & Nutrition

We believe that good food is absolutely central to the wellbeing of our residents.

With this in mind we purchase ingredients from our local butcher, fishmonger, and greengrocer. This allows us to handpick the best quality produce and provide home-cooked meals from scratch on the premises.
