SOCIETY of HOSPITAL
	LINEN SERVICE and
	LAUNDRY MANAGERS

	The Society was founded in 1951 by a group of Laundry Managers who thought it would be a good idea to meet on a regular basis for the exchange of information. Fifty years later and our Society is a thriving, professional association, which has gained the respect of all those associated with the laundry / linen services / textile industry.

We offer training for all those involved with Healthcare linen services either by

regionally held courses, one to one events or our annual national conference. Many

trusts have used the Society’s trained personnel to assist in their development or

rationalisation of in-house or shared services.

We have a democratically elected National Executive Council (NEC) which is made up of nine regionally elected representatives, four National officers and a President. All are committed to achieving a common goal of promoting the status of Linen Service Management within the Health Service as well as acting as a focal point for any relevant issues.
