Summer Seminar Malnutrition task force and the importance within the care sector
The Malnutrition Task Force Independent group of experts across health, social care and local government, united to address the problem of preventable malnutrition in older people
Malnutrition Task Force Mission To ensure the prevention and treatment of preventable malnutrition is embedded in all care and community support services as well as raising awareness amongst older people and their families
Phase 1: Understanding • Research, workshops, learning examples and case studies • Understanding the issues • Understanding what looks good • Finding out what interventions have already taken place to tackle malnutrition - being clear on what has worked

FIC main changes • Nutrition labelling to be mandatory, will be in a different order • Allergy advice line no longer allowed • Allergy information in ingredients list, brakes will highlight allergens in BOLD
Implications for Brakes • Change to every piece of packaging • Trying to coincide with new branding • Any product produced after December 2014 must be in FIC compliant packaging • We may have long shelf life products in 2015 or beyond • New packaging will be seen from the end of 2013
FIC for food sold loose • This is food sold in catering • Must provide allergen information • Information on 14 allergens • Will no longer be able to say • ‘I do not know what is in the food’ • Applies to all catering

How will caterers provide this information • Must be available • Back of house manual • Internal Website • Access to central database of recipes • Provision • Advice to consumer that this information is available • Notice in restaurant • On the menu • Customer website • Verbal communication with customer
