The public sector spends more than £2bn every year providing food to public institutions. A Bill calling for mandatory standards to ensure ethically sourced, environmentally friendly, healthy meals in hospitals is due to be discussed on January 21st 2011. Should this Bill be passed, what implications will it have on hospital food providers, NHS catering staff and the patients themselves. This webinar will discuss the barriers of implementing sustainable food procurement in hospital facilities and the impacts a Sustainable Food Bill will have on industry, estates and patients within the NHS.
