  • Clean all surfaces with antibacterial spray and disposable blue paper towel.
  • Do not refreeze food that has been defrosted.
  • Sell off or give away any food left in the food warmer. This food cannot be frozen. If any cooked food is left over please dispose of it in the bin. Cake can be put in the fridge. Unused fresh bread rolls can be placed in freezer bags and placed in the freezer under the microwave,
  • Turn off the food warmer, open the glass doors both sides to let it cool before cleaning the surfaces with antibacterial spray and the glass surfaces with Glass Cleaner, both to be found under the sink.

  • Complete food hygiene form. Make sure you tick all the boxes required, and have carried out the procedures correctly. The form needs to be signed. Please make a note of anything that has run out, is low, faulty or broken or otherwise requires attention. It would be helpful if you could add any comments about the food served from members or email me with a short report <This email address is being protected from spambots.

  • Any accidents or incidents to be reported in incident book found in Members' Room
  • In summer leave galley windows open on their security restraints as we have two freezers and three fridges operating which generate a lot of heat.
