Putting your best foot forward
The older we get, the more important it becomes to take good care or our feet. Unkempt nails can contribute to an increase in falls, so it is vital to look after your nails to help prevent some of the challenges of ageing. The service is available to those aged 50+, who meet our low level criteria and is charged at a competitive rate.
