8th June 2011, 10:28am

The National Association of Care Catering (NACC) National Training & Development Forum 2011 is returning to the Hilton Hotel, Blackpool on 14-16 September 2011.

The forum (previously called conference and exhibition) has established itself as the essential training and development event for caterers in the care sector.  

It will help delegates to improve the catering provision they have responsibility for, learn from their peers through networking, discover the latest thinking in food, drink, technology and equipment, and deepen their knowledge through presentations by high-profile speakers.

The event's relevance extends to catering managers, dieticians, local authority staff, NHS staff, social services officers, owners or managers of day care centres or residential homes, healthcare company executives, domiciliary care providers, members of caring organisations, and any supplier to the care catering sector.

The programme includes presentations and workshops led by high-profile speakers such as Mo Baines, principal advisor, APSE, Geoff Booth, vice principal, Westminster Kingsway College, Ruth Bell MSc, FIFST and Alan Hatton-Yeo, CEO, Beth Johnson Foundation. 

The two-day event will also play host to the NACC Awards 2011 gala dinner on Thursday 15 September 2011.

The NACC Awards categories include Catering Team or Individual of the Year, Care Establishment of the Year, Community Meals Award, Innovation or Achievement Award and Regional Award.

The NACC National Training & Development Forum 2011 is complemented by CaterCare 2011, bringing together operators and suppliers in an educational environment.
