The course is for two hours. This course is for those of you who are in the food business or are thinking about going into the food business, but not sure where you stand with the new legislation and food safety. As I said the course is FREE but I have limited spaces as the meeting room only holds 10 people. So, if you’re interested please PM or call me on 022 659 8674 to book your place. Please pass on this post to anyone who you think might be interested. Cheers.
