Toe-To-Toe

Good footcare is important to keeping healthy, active and reducing your risk of falls.

As we age, we can experience difficulty with basic foot care. If this applies to you, the Toe-To-Toe service may be able to help.

Toe-To-Toe is a volunteer-led membership service for residents of West Dunbartonshire, providing:

Toenail Clipping
Hard Skin Removal
Advice on caring for your feet

All Toe-To-Toe volunteers have received training from NHSGGC Podiatry colleagues.

"I wasn't aware of the service until I saw a notice asking for volunteers. I thought it was a good opportunity to get involved and share my time."

Demand is very high, so you will understand that no single member can access the service more than 4 times per year and we will always prioritise those most in need.

Appointment slots of 30 minutes each are available. All appointments take place in Arcadia Business Centre, Clydebank. Home visits are not available.

The service receives no external funding and relies on the donations of members to help us cover the costs of accommodation, materials and volunteer expenses. There will also be a small one-off charge for your individual clippers and file.

To find out more and become a member, contact us on 0141 280 0129.

"Although I don't have any real problems with my feet, annoyingly I can't manage the general maintenance myself anymore, so I attend the Toe-To-Toe Service."
