Celebrating 75 years of NHS Service
75 years of tirelessly serving the nation doesn’t happen without the heart and soul of the NHS operations – their wonderful staff, so we wanted to speak with some of the heroes behind the scenes at Royal Leicester Infirmary – some of which have been working in NHS catering for over 40 years!
Working with Bidfood
Hear Phil Shelley from the NHS talk about the close relationship we have with his business. Phil discusses the amount of support available for hospitals through Bidfood including CQUIN guidance, innovation and help with sustainability. We’re really proud of our partnership and close relationship with Phil and the team.
Specialist diets
We’re here to help you care for your patients and we have a fantastic range of support to assist you in catering for the more specialist diets.

Helping you cater with confidence
If you’re looking to improve your staff skill levels, look no further. Our exclusive Caterer’s Campus e-learning platform covers key modules such as dysphagia, IDDSI, hydration, catering for dementia, and more. Your staff can learn virtually and in their own time.
Unlocking your menu's full potential
Creating a great meal offering for patients can be tough. That’s why we have pulled together some advice and guidance to help you navigate challenges such as staff shortages, cost savings, and creating a flexible menu.
