WEAVER Vale Housing Trust has been presented with 10 awards for the high quality of food served at its retirement apartments.

All ten independent living schemes in the borough have been rewarded with the platinum award, the highest standard, in the recent annual Vale Royal Food Safe Awards.

The awards, organised by Vale Royal Borough Council, commend businesses in the area for good practice in food preparation and presentation.

It is the fourth year running that all ten of the Trust’s independent living projects have won top honours.

Crissy Watson, the Trust’s independent living team manager, said: “Ten platinum awards is an excellent outcome and shows the outstanding commitment to our customers.

“I would like to pass on my congratulations to all of our staff who are involved all year round in producing such nutritious and enjoyable menus for our customers’ enjoyment and satisfaction.

“A special thanks to our cooks for their commitment and continuing excellence in all aspects of food hygiene, preparation and presentation of food.”
