Food Safety Certificate

Keep your community safe while you serve!

Whether you are flipping burgers at a weekend fundraiser or managing a busy community canteen, understanding food safety is essential. For not-for-profit organisations, maintaining high food safety standards isn't just about best practice, it is a vital part of protecting your supporters and ensuring your organisation remains compliant with local health regulations. Even for casual events like a sausage sizzle, proper handling, storage, and preparation are key to preventing foodborne illness and safeguarding your group's reputation.

We are hosting this practical, easy-to-understand session as part of our Night Studio, our relaxed evening program where the community comes together to learn and connect.

What we will cover:

• Safe food handling and preparation techniques.
• Temperature control for high-risk foods.
• Correct cleaning and sanitisation procedures.
• Regulatory requirements for NFP food stalls and canteens.

Session Details:

• Date: Tuesday, 4 August
• Time: 5:30 - 7:30
• Location: Hervey Bay Community Centre, 22 Charles Street Pialba 
• Cost: Free
