About Food Train
Food Train is a charity helping older people across Scotland. We offer our members practical help to eat well, age well and live well at home for longer.
We’d like to see access to food and meals for older people right across Scotland that is readily available, culturally appropriate, nutritious, fresh and designed to improve health and wellbeing of our older population.
