Food Safety and Standards

Educational Work and Promotion of Food Safety

A range of activities are undertaken with the aim of promoting knowledge and understanding of food hygiene and standards within Pembrokeshire:

• The Food Team, supported by the Food Standards Agency,  put on an interactive display and quiz at the Crucial Crew event, held at Withybush Showground during October. The event is usually attended by over 1200 primary school children. The message delivered focuses on food safety in the home and the prevention of food poisoning.
• The Food Team also participate in Food Safety Week which  takes place during June .
• More generally the Food Team provides information through the section of our website aimed at providing Food and Safety Information to businesses.

We are also planning  mailshots to targeted sectors of the business community.
