Hospital Caterers Association


The Hospital Caterers Association is an industry body in the United Kingdom for people and organisations involved in NHS Healthcare Catering Management established in 1948
It runs an annual award ceremony.
It set up an annual Nutrition and Hydration Week, every March. In 2016 95% of NHS Trusts and more than 2,000 care homes participated.
It supports efforts to reduce unhealthy food and drink supplies in the NHS.
Andy Jones, a former Chair of the Association, challenged NHS Chief Executives to eat patients food for a week in 2016, so that they would have a better understanding of the challenges.
