Dear member,
You may have seen previous emails regarding the School Meals Matter campaign that is being run by both LACA and the Caterer and Hotelkeeper magazine. The petition has now reached over 1,000 but in order for this campaign to be really effective we really do need to involve everyone we can.
Every LACA regional meeting or industry meeting that I attend, people are talking about the school lunch grant and what a catastrophic affect losing it will have to the industry. So what’s stopping you signing up and encouraging your staff and family and friends? If you have already signed up, thank you for your support and remember that anyone can sign, not just people who work in the industry!!!
We really do need to speak with a strong and unified voice if we’re going to make any impact on the incoming Government. Loss of this funding WILL impact on peoples jobs, there is no two ways about it and this is the message that we need to be relaying!
Please follow this link to sign the petition – it will take 30 seconds. You can also follow the campaign on Twitter and Facebook.
If you have any questions regarding the campaign, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Regards, Vicki

NSMW, which takes place from Monday 8th November to Friday 12th November 2010, provides an excellent platform for school caterers to increase school meal numbers and promote the benefits and importance of healthy eating to young children and their parents. In 2009 market research showed that where meal numbers had increased the average was 7.8%.
This annual event run by LACA will continue to be an online campaign after the success achieved last year. Each day there will be a different theme and more information will be available at www.iloveschoolmeals.co.uk
The School Catering Exhibition ran alongside the Local Authority Caterers Association National Conference and AGM at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole on the 7th, 8th & 9th July 2010
