The panellists will discuss the challenges faced by older people to eat well, examples of services and what more can be done.

Registration is now open for an upcoming roundtable discussion hosted by Food Train is now open.

The importance of eating well as we get older is well documented. However, many older people in Scotland struggle to access good, nutritious food and 17% of older people in Scotland may be at risk of becoming malnourished.

Join on Wednesday 19th November 2025, 2-3:30pm, to hear from panellists with a broad range of experiences working with older people to ensure they can access the food they need. The roundtable will discuss

• What challenges older people currently face when accessing food
• Examples of projects that work to support older people to eat well
• What steps are needed in the future to ensure older people can continue to access the food they need.

The event will be held on MS Teams and is free to attend. There is also an option to register to receive a recording of the event if you cannot attend live.
