Royal Recognition for Excellence in Hospital Food

Monday, December 19, 2011

Prince Charles has congratulated 14 hospitals, including three in the South West, for the work they have done to improve and maintain high standards of food for patients and staff in their organisations. The event in December at Clarence House welcomed chief executives, catering managers, people who serve food on wards, patient representatives, and local farmers who supply the hospitals. HRH The Prince of Wales has been working with the Soil Association since 2004 and has long campaigned to improve the quality of food in hospitals. Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation, North Bristol NHS Trust, and Devon Partnership NHS Trust were among the 14 Trusts representing the highest achievements in hospital catering.
