New online hub launched for food businesses

The new 'Here to Help' hub brings together a range of guides, documentation, and checklists on how to:

• set up a food business,
• achieve a good food hygiene rating, and
• manage allergens to keep customers safe.

At a time when new food businesses are facing cost pressures and other challenges, the FSA and local authorities want to make it easier for businesses to do the right thing.

The hub aims to encourage businesses to access these free resources and to recognise that the FSA, as well as the Environmental Health Officers within their local councils, are there to help them run a compliant and safe business.

As part of the campaign, the FSA has also made available new case studies on their blog, telling real stories about how working with your local authority and the FSA helps get your business off the ground and grow safely and successfully.
