The British Society of Baking is to host its exhibition dinner on the Monday night of the Bakery@Foodex exhibition, taking place from 25-27 March 2012 at Birmingham’s NEC.

The dinner will take place at the Marriott Forest of Arden Hotel and Country Club, near Birmingham’s NEC on 26 March. It is open to anyone visiting or exhibiting at the show, not just Society members. Following the dinner, the guest speaker is Rev Richard Coles, once a member of 1980s pop group The Communards and now a popular BBC radio broadcaster with a prime-time Saturday show.

The dinner, including wine, tea and coffee is £70 to BSB members and £75 to non-members. Guests booking a table of 10 can subtract £75 from the total price. Visit www.bsb.org.uk for details, or contact BSB secretary Sharon Byrne at bsb@freeuk.com or tel 01869 247098.
