Welcome to our Autumn Edition of SOFHT Focus

It’s that time of the year again…

It’s hard to believe that a year has passed since I took on the role of Editor of SOFHT Focus! Again, I find myself penning a forward just ahead of SOFHT’s annual highlight, the Lecture, Lunch & Awards – an excellent opportunity for the Directors to hear from you face-to-face and discover what else you might want from SOFHT and SOFHT Focus, one of multiple means of engaging with you. As the highlight of the SOFHT calendar, I know just how much work Karen Best, the office team and Directors invest in this event and yet every year it somehow manages to surpass the last!

Congratulations to all nominees and good luck to you if you are up for an award! Preoccupied with food quality, safety, authenticity and innovation our members are the enablers of the industry, so it would be remiss not to mention food and drink! Yet again, we will be hosted by THE BREWERY who have now developed an excellent reputation for the great food and wine they’ve served to SOFHT members, year after year. If you haven’t booked already, you’ll find details in this edition, so, hope to see you on the 20th of November.This edition is the first following our successful Back to Basics Conference on the 23rd of September at the Nottingham Belfry, I hope you’ll enjoy the report and photos from the day. Our ‘Director in the spotlight’ in this edition is Sarah English, whom I’m sure you will enjoy getting to know a little better.

I hope you enjoy this issue and once again thanks to the team for producing another great edition, the next one will follow and report on our wonderful Annual Lecture, Lunch & Awards! I hope to see you there on November 20th, but don’t forget you will also be able to avail of our free regular forums in October (Hygiene Manager on the 20th and Legislation on the 22nd).

Enjoy Autumn and hope to see you soon!
