We would like to invite you to attend our Chef’s Academy in Bournemouth.

After receiving requests for a Chef’s Academy in this part of England, we are pleased to be hosting one in May 2022 and invite you to join us.

About our award-worthy Chef’s Academy programme

The events were originally developed two years ago after recognising a gap in training and resources for NHS chefs. At each event our experienced team teach culinary skills through hands-on cooking, inspire through new recipes and analysis (including a look at cost and time efficiency), and provide the opportunity to learn new dishes developed by NHS Supply Chain using our approved products. Attendees are expected to turn up ready to learn and to cook new dishes, mentored by our culinary team. They will leave feeling inspired with new ideas and perhaps new skills. Attendance can also count towards HIT Training Ltd courses.

“I’m passionate about food and want to support the growth of catering teams in NHS trusts across the country. We’ve seen such success so far with the Chef’s Academy and attendees leaving feeling inspired, with new skills and new ideas, as well as a bank of recipes they can take straight back to their kitchen.” - Nick Vadis, culinary ambassador in the NHS Supply Chain: Food team

Bournemouth and Poole College

Address: Bournemouth and Poole College, Lansdowne Campus, Meyrick Road, Bournemouth, BH1 3JJ

Travel instructions: The site is on the Lansdowne roundabout, on the eastern side of Bournemouth town centre. The building has a large clock tower facing the roundabout, so it’s easy to spot. You can reach it from Christchurch Road, Meyrick Road and Gervis Road, and it’s just a few hundred metres to the East Cliff.

We look forward to seeing you there.
