If our delivery team has to clear a room on collection, a charge of £20 will be made with payment coming from the same cost centre whose details you supplied when placing your booking.

 

 

Due to the current climate the University has had to review its sale or return policy. At this time, we are not able to offer sale or return and will charge in full for all delivered items. Please ensure you take any unopened items with you at the end of your event, otherwise they will be cleared by the catering team. Fresh food items need to be disposed of to comply with Food Safety Regulations, after your event has finished.  Food taken away from the event will not be the responsibility of Food Fellows. Any concern or queries regarding Food Safety please contact info@conferences.bham.ac.uk.

 

Please be aware that our food is prepared in kitchens that contain gluten, nuts, and other allergens. We cannot completely guarantee that there is no risk of cross contamination.

If you require any further details, please contact a member of the team by email at info@conferences.bham.ac.uk.

 

Unfortunately, due to increased pressure on our suppliers there may be times when products are unavailable, if this happens Food Fellows will contact you with as much notice as possible and advise of any substitutions.
