About the Guide to the Food Hygiene and Safety Regulations.

Most other guides we have seen, including some recommended to us by officials, were written before 2006 when all the new regulations came in. Thus, they are out of date. Most tell you to read them alongside the regulation, which means you must get hold of the latest version of the text to understand what the guide is saying. That is why we have put the relevant text of the latest versions in our Guide with the official advice and a brief explanation.

We will be revising the Guide this autumn with any new legislation. Suggestions for greater clarity would be welcome. The Guide is sent to members free as part of the benefits of membership. Further copies may be purchased from the website.

Many people have told us that they found it useful. Some have read it all through like a novel; but most have used it to find out what the rules are for different subjects.

Comments we have had about the book include:

"The book is very, very readable and well laid out. It’s also packed full of information. It will be of immense value to food businesses."

"Handy to remind me what the regulations actually say." Food Consultant

Wiltshire Farmer

"Your help earlier last year with the impending rules over beef on the bone over 24 months was great. We knew what was coming and when it came it wasn't a shock! Thank you."

From a publican restaurateur in Cornwall

"We came into this business as newcomers. I don't know what we would have done without your help."

Midlands City Council

"Many thanks for the information. I doubt I would have found it without your help."

A Golf Club restaurant in the West Country had an environmental health inspection at which they showed the EHP Food Solutions. The EHP liked the publication and was pleased it was being used.

It has been said the magazines (updates) are good coffee break reading material. Some businesses actively encourage their staff to read them too.

Members who have used the helpline speak very highly of the help they have received.
