Schoolchildren to answer questions at children's foodservice conference

How is catering in schools changing? How can you successfully market your brand to kids? How can you develop a kids' menu? These are some of the topics that will be examined at the Catering for Kids Conference on 21-22 November at the Marriott hotel in Slough, Berkshire.

The two-day conference aims to inspire anyone involved in children's foodservice with new ideas and ways to improve sales.
