Nail Cutting

nailcutting2Are painful feet making you feel unsteady on your feet?. Healthy, comfortable feet are essential especially for older people. Never ignore minor foot problems as they can get worse. Those toe nails included!

We have a growing nail cutting service. You may smile but toe nails can be a real nuisance when you're older. And they are not always easy to do on your own. Long toenails can cause a fall and possible hospitalisation as a result.

The service is funded by the Dorset Partnership for Older People Project, POPP and is available in Weymouth, Purbeck and West Dorset for people over the age of 50.

Sue and Debbie have set up the service in various locations and you can book an appointment to have your toenails cut, a task many people find challenging.
