Shopping Centre Giveaways in Food Safety Week


Free fridge thermometers and goody bags

As part of National Food Safety Week, which runs from June 7 to 13, Hammersmith and Fulham Council is giving away free fridge thermometers, goody bags and the chance to win £150 in shopping vouchers.

Council officers will be at Kings Mall in Hammersmith on June 8 and Fulham Broadway Centre on June 9 to offer advice on how to properly store, handle and cook food at home, to help keep germs at bay.

Residents can also enter a competition to win £150 in shopping vouchers.

This year’s campaign is focussing on how to prevent campylobacter – a bacteria that causes the greatest number of cases of food-borne illness in the UK – by cooking food thoroughly and avoiding cross-contamination.
