Innovation

Industry Problem

People with dementia and others at risk of dehydration may not recognise thirst or may struggle to drink enough fluids.

R&D Focus

Sugar-free hydration confectionery.

Innovative Solution

Soft, easy-to-handle water sweets made with approximately 95% water provide an alternative way to increase fluid intake.

Solution Effectiveness

The company reported helping more than 80,000 people by 2025. A six-week NHS Walsall pilot in 2021 explored use in care settings; results should be treated as service-pilot evidence, not a definitive clinical trial.
