Nutrition and Hydration Week 2026

From 16th-22nd March 2026

Nutrition and Hydration Week is dedicated to shining a spotlight on the importance of proper nutrition and hydration in health and social care. The campaign celebrates progress and innovation in how food and drink are provided – locally, nationally, and around the world.

It brings people together to raise awareness, share knowledge, and inspire positive change, highlighting how the right nutrition and hydration play a vital role in supporting health, recovery, and overall wellbeing. Through education and collaboration, the week encourages individuals and organisations to recognise the powerful impact that food and drink have on maintaining a healthier life. 🥗💧

This year the event will be held from 16th to 22nd March 2026.
