Tender Loving Cuisine Your menu to healthy eating
Tender Loving Cuisine (TLC) started in 1995 when the company grew from the need to provide people, recovering after an illness or an accident, with nutritious and delicious meals. It has now expanded to provide a huge variety of meals to the general community on the east coast of Australia. TLC's menu caters not only for people
who are ill or frail aged but also for those who have special dietary requirements and for people wanting to lose or gain weight. TLC meals are designed to provide
healthier meal solutions for seniors, people on the go and anyone looking for convenient healthier meal options. Meals for people who are diabetic The TLC range includes over 45 meals, which have been subjected to a review by a panel of professionals at the Australian Diabetes Council. Each of these meals has met the Australian Diabetes Council Nutrient
Criteria and are considered beneficial to help maintain blood sugar levels. Meals for people with celiac disease Starting a gluten-free diet can be overwhelming especially for seniors who have had a lifetime of eating whatever they liked. TLC provides an easy way to cope with a change of diet by delivering a range of ready made meals that are gluten free. These meals all undergo laboratory testing to ensure that they have no gluten detected to the industry standard of five parts per million. Other TLC dietary options include meals
with the Heart Foundation Tick as well as dairy free, low salt, vegetarian, or texture soft meals. Premium and economy menus are available. Meals are easy to order, perfectly
proportioned and delivered direct to your door. Each meal is a healthier and nutritious solution for when you simply haven't got the time or the means to cook. Perhaps you
need assistance after an illness or injury? Whatever the reason, a meal made with TLC has everything that you need. TLC can be contacted on 1800 801 200
from 9am to 4.45pm Monday - Friday. You'll speak with real people and you can talk to them about special meals and menus. For seniors, there's discounts of up to 13
per cent. For more information go to

menus and a free e-booklet ‘The A,B,C’s of Gluten Free’. Or you can phone for a menu to be mailed to you. Introductory Meal Tasting Packs are available from TLC.
Fit for feet at Barefoot Freedom
If your hair is done properly and you’re wearing good shoe, you can ge away with anything – Iris Apfel
All feet are not created equal. If you have high arches, bunions, arthritis, heel pain, ankle roll in or out, flat or extra wide feet, long toes, feet of different sizes or other foot issues that make it impossible for you to find an ‘off the shelf ’ pair of shoes, help is not far away. A stone’s throw from Royal North Shore
Hospital and a few doors from the entrance to St Leonards Train Station, is Barefoot Freedom where people with feet needing special shoes can go to get comfortable and quality orthotic footwear. Barefoot Freedom, established in 1987,
is the Australian distributor for Drew Shoe Corporation, an Ohio (USA) company established 139 years ago. Drew is recognised as world leading engineers and manufacturers of therapeutic footwear. At Barefoot Freedom, you will be looked
after by experienced and qualified people who really know feet, and appreciate the
difference a pair of comfortable shoes can make to a person’s well being. “No foot problem too big or too small” is
the attitude you’ll find at Barefoot Freedom where you have the freedom to choose from over 300 styles of shoes for men and women knowing you’ll get a comfortable fit. Many people, who have had shoes
fitted at Royal North Shore Hospital will
remember Peter Croxall, former Head of Orthotics Department at Royal North Shore Hospital. Peter is now the in-house orthotist at Barefoot Freedom. Peter, a member of the Australian
Orthotic & Prosthetic Association for over thirty years, is considered a leader in his field not only by his patients, but also by Sydney's top orthopaedic and arthritis specialists. Also at Barefoot Freedom is Mark Lilly,
a certified pedorthist with the Australian Medical Grade Footwear Association, and
David Curry who has been fitting medical- grade footwear for 30 years. Barefoot Freedom is a registered
