Save £420,000 a year on breakfasts, NHS told

Save £420,000 a year on breakfasts, NHS told New scheme will help hospitals cut back without compromising nutrition

The government is calling on the NHS to reduce the amount of money it spends on food and drink, saying it could save £420,000 a year on breakfast products alone.

The government claims that, if hospital trusts got better deals on breakfast items, they could cut their bills by a third without compromising on the quality of food or drink being served. It says that some hospitals are paying inflated prices to suppliers for breakfast items such as tea, coffee, baked beans and juice. The Guardian
