Welcome to Home Artificial Nutrition (HAN) Week 2020

Welcome to Home Artificial Nutrition (HAN) Week 2020.

This week we aim to raise awareness about lifesaving, life-changing home treatments that provide people without the ability to eat and drink normally, a way to receive their nutrition and hydration.

We have a variety of activities during the week and we encourage everyone to join in for some or all the events. There will be daily updates on this page, featured PINNT members sharing their stories plus lots more, keep in touch via Facebook and Twitter: @PINNTcharity

This is an inclusive event, we welcome support from everyone, if we all do our bit to like and share posts, we will all be helping to raise awareness of Home Artificial Nutrition. We encourage you to share your posts with us too.

Please take time to view our HAN Week animation and the launch video from Ezekiel and Amy. Please accept Ezekiel’s challenge, scroll down to find a printable poster to complete.

You can visit us here for daily updates for each day or follow us on Facebook or Twitter to enjoy the many posts we will be sharing.
