We're Champions of Jelly Drops; Now Launching Across South Devon!

With the summer sunshine in full swing, staying hydrated has never been more important — and now, thanks to a clever innovation, it’s never been more enjoyable either.

CareYourWay South Devon is proud to be introducing Jelly Drops to more of the wonderful people we support. These bright, juicy sweets aren’t just a tasty treat — they’ve been specially designed to boost hydration in a gentle, dignified way, particularly for older adults and those living with dementia.

Created by a young inventor inspired by his grandmother’s struggle to stay hydrated, Jelly Drops are made up of over 90% water, enriched with electrolytes, and shaped like soft, colourful sweets. They’re easy to hold, chew and enjoy — and are fast becoming a firm favourite with many of our clients.

Celebrating a Summer of Wellbeing

The South Devon team marked the official Jelly Drops launch with a fun non-uniform day to help everyone keep cool and comfortable. Alongside the light-hearted celebrations, it was a meaningful reminder of how small, thoughtful changes can make a big difference to everyday wellbeing.

Jelly Drops are now being offered more widely across our services, especially during periods of warm weather when dehydration becomes more common and potentially serious. They offer a dignified alternative to traditional hydration methods, and support independence and enjoyment, especially for those who may struggle with drinking fluids regularly.

Looking Ahead

With other CareYourWay offices now beginning to roll out Jelly Drops too, South Devon is proud to be leading the way in championing innovative, person-centred care.

These little sweets are a big step forward in making hydration easier, more accessible and more enjoyable — one Jelly Drop at a time.
