This course is suitable for anyone who handles and prepares food. This might be in a commercial catering environment or as a volunteer; eg at a local lunch club. The course assumes knowledge of basic food safety; and builds on this to consider the legislation relating to the management of allergens; the effect that allergens have on the body and strategies to ensure that allergens are clearly labelled. Reducing contamination is covered alongside notifiable diseases and action to take. The course is assessed using a simple multiple choice quiz.
I have worked with parents and children for over 20 years in a variety of roles. I am an experienced and dynamic leader who has worked both in the statutory and voluntary sector to manage projects from inception to delivery of challenging targets. I am an enthusiastic individual keen to motivate others and support them to develop to their full potential.
I have over 10 years of leadership and management experience. Alongside this I have had 20 years experience of training. I have developed my own programmes in response to identified training needs, and delivered accredited courses. Both in my paid work and voluntary roles, I work with community members, staff and partners and I have developed excellent interpersonal, written and verbal skills to communicate at different levels. I source about 50% of my work directly with clients and for the other 50% am delighted to work with various training and consultancy companies, ensuring that my knowledge and professional development is always up to date.
