Fight the staggering rise of type-2 diabetes by simply learning to cook healthy fresh food - it's fun, and it could save your life!
men chocolate incredibles
Have you ever seen a really good chocolate dish & women? It affects women not like men. It’s incredible.
age good-food realised
From quite an early age I realised the effect that good food can have on others.
motivation children inspiration
Your child will live a life ten years younger than you because of the landscape of food that we've built around them.
summer memories dad
My first outdoor cooking memories are full of erratic British summers, Dad swearing at a barbecue that he couldn't put together, and eventually eating charred sausages, feeling brilliant.

Give your kids a bloody knife and fork and let me put some fresh food in front of them they can eat.
everyday problem treats
It's not the extremes and the treats that are the problem. It's the everyday.

team kids thinking
I think there are definitely two types of student: the academic kids and the 50% who fail. It's very clear to see - it's fact. We're not doing enough for those who fail; they need a more physical, tactile approach, involving people skills, team-building, problem-solving, building things.
laughing lovely kitchen
As soon as I was old enough to peer over the worktops, I remember being fascinated by what went on in the kitchen. It just seemed such a cool place, everyone working together to make this lovely stuff and having a laugh doing it.
love real food
What I've enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn - I love it!
cute littles achieve
My aim is to achieve sustainable change, not just make a cute little makeover.
mistake done
40% of what I've done was a mistake. I now call it R&D.
