Hospital venison

[Ploddy Paul]

My daughter is a NHS nurse and she sent me a photo of the hospital menu which states there will always be low carbon dishes including venison pie and venison hotpot. I hope the low carbon part includes not importing from NZ! Paul

Is there not an English setup that provides to Hospitals? I'm sure someone started it a couple of years ago.

Maybe through the BQWV scheme. Not that many people know about that..

I'm back down in London hospital with my lad & venison meatball on menu - popular & very nice it was too.

Though the lady serving did 'have to let you know it's venison'. Heard few people query what that means...!!?? I told her thats why im getting it!

Forestry England wild venison on the menu at East Lancashire hospitals

A collaboration between Forestry England, Highland Game and the East Lancashire Hospital Trust (ELHT) is putting locally sourced wild venison on the menu – to the delight of patients and staff.

Found this online. Not sure if its spread further than the original scheme location. Unfortunately Highland Game are also mentioned so no guarantee of it being British. The other company involved sources its venison from Ireland according to their website.

Only if its Wild British Venison in my opinion

Unfortunately the scheme wont be suitable for almost all stalkers out there.

How the f*ck can they get away with low carbon quote if its supplied via highland game and good chance it in part came from over side of the fu*king planet ?!
Bloody sham!
Dunnoe how they get away with such blatant pi5h !

Nice food, I've been living on venison meatballs for a month now, can't get enough of them.
Good luck with your little lad, mate

My mate works at BAE and they had a questionair about using cheaper venison than beef if it would be an issue for people
They are now using it in place of beef for all dishes and all enjoying it

Fantastic news on the basis its creating a real demand for venison. The big game dealers will supply big customers. Smaller producers and individuals will supply the local market.
