When Pat, our founder Lewis’s grandma, was rushed to hospital with severe dehydration, they were told to prepare themselves for the worst. Pat, who had dementia, spent 24 hours on IV fluids in hospital before thankfully making a full recovery. Lewis was left wondering how something so small could have a potentially life-threatening impact.

Lewis then spent a month in his grandmother’s care home to try and find a solution. Consulting with doctors and speech and language therapists, he spent 18 months testing and developing the product you see today.

Jelly Drops are made with 95% water and are an engaging sweet that allows people to boost their water intake independently and with more dignity. Created with grandma Pat in mind, but loved by everyone.

We are humbled by the public recognition Jelly Drops has received. During 18 months of development we have received over 15 awards within design, innovation and social impact. As a young company, these competitions have brought connections, resources and training that have been vital in making Jelly Drops a reality.

We are also very proud of our partnerships. As part of the Alzheimer’s Society’s Innovation Accelerator, 1% of profits from every box sold goes back to the Alzheimer’s Society!
