The West of Scotland Branch celebrated its 70th anniversary year with the annual ‘2020 Catering Vision’ event, which was held on Friday 7 February at Seamill Hydro Hotel, West Kilbride. The Study Day focused on a food waste workshop, together with updates on the Root and Branch Review and the Association Governance Review. The event had an exhibition, with delegates all free to attend. The Study Day was followed by the alternative Burns Supper, which is always an experience.

In December we had our AGM, followed by lunch, at Brian Maule Chardon D’or restaurant in Glasgow. The officers approved were:
