Food Counts

Food Counts is the expert specialist group of the British Dietetic Association for those dietitians with a special interest in food in care settings. There is a focus on food provision, sharing good practice, collaborating, communicating, setting standards and guidelines, creating positive relationships, supporting and educating.

working through guidelines; and
- •
meals on wheels.
