What do we do?

As people get older they can be faced with a number of conditions that make it difficult to reach their feet and cut their toenails. Poor eyesight, arthritis and the inability to bend and move freely are just some of them. We provide a simple nail cutting service.

 

Who can benefit?

People over the age of 50 who are unable to cut their own toenails and who have no one else to do it for them. Before we can accept someone onto the scheme we will need to ask some questions about their health and medication. This is because, for health reasons, we are not able to help people with certain medical conditions such as diabetes or blood disorders.

 

How much does it cost?

We charge £10 per treatment.

In order to meet hygiene standards, service users will also be asked to make a 'one off' purchase for their own clippers and file which will cost £12

 

Please remember, we are only able to cut toenails

Unfortunately we cannot offer any other treatment apart from toenail cutting. Should you require more extensive treatment, please seek advice from your local podiatry service.

 

Where do we operate?

We hold clinics in various locations through out the county of  Wiltshire. We are sorry but we are unable to make home visits.

 

To find out where your nearest clinic is or to take advantage of this service, please contact our main office.
