This week is Food Safety Week and Sutton Council is saying to consumers: ‘Don’t wash your chicken’.

During the campaign, we will share a number of tips about what consumers can do to protect themselves and their family from food poisoning in their own home, particularly when handling chicken.

This will include information about the food bug called campylobacter.
