Kilimanjaro 2025

I'm fundraising for the future of hospitality.

I'm raising money for The Burnt Chef Project, an organisation set up to tackle mental health stigma in the hospitality industry.

 

Did you know?

4 out of 5 hospitality professionals report to having experienced mental health issues. It's time to change this!

 

It's something very close to my heart and I would love your support!

 

Some reasons why they need your help today:

  • It costs The Burnt Chef Project £80 (UK) / $100 (non UK) per person for therapy through their global EAP scheme.
  • They have trained over 1600 students in the last 2 years in mental health and stress reduction at a cost of £400/$480 per talk
  • £158 ($180) per volunteer they train in peer support to better aid those suffering with mental health issues

 

Together you can help them do so much more!

Kilimanjaro trek for all the burnt chefs

Friday 13th Dec
I have been working for 5 years as the Revel collective development chef, for Revolution bars and Revolucion de Cuba.

 I'm delighted to be signed up for an amazing opportunity to trek up Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak to raise awareness and funds for the burnt chef project. 

I've been a chef since I was 16 years old and have seen a lot!

Mental health and well being was something that was never talked about when i was younger. So the fact this organisation exists now, is really important. 

I'm doing this trek to raise awareness and help fund the great work the burnt chef project does. 

The more chefs and the hospitality industry break down the stigma the better!
