Information from BCBC Catering Services: 

Medically Prescribed Diets

Does your child have a food allergy/intolerance or a medical condition, which would require them to need a Medically Prescribed Diet? If so, Catering Services has an online facility where a medically prescribed diet can be requested.

To request a special diet, simply complete the application form.

Please ensure you have a copy of a recent medical letter confirming the diagnosis and required diet, as this will need to be uploaded during the application.

The requirement for medical confirmation is to protect the health of your child and ensure that there is a medical need to restrict their diet. Providing a very restricted diet without medical need could potentially be harmful to the child without the support of a health professional. We cannot process your request until we have received this.

Once we have received the form, you will either receive a special diet menu for your approval by email or we will contact you to discuss your child’s requirements in more detail before sending a menu out to you. Please allow up to 3 weeks for your menu to arrive.

To protect the health of your child, please provide your child with a packed lunch from home until you have received the confirmed start date.

Please note:  Even with proactive cross contamination control measures, multiple handling processes in the supply chain do present the potential for trace ingredients to remain present. We cannot control the food brought into the dining environment by other customers.
