Our own local top chef, Trevor Hancock, has been working with schools since the beginning of the '06-'07 school year.  Trevor trained at the Savoy, worked on the QE2 and currently owns his own hotel and runs an outside catering company.  Trevor is now working with the Education Catering team to offer extra training to every one of our cooks.  Each cook now attends a three day course with Trevor, held at Radbrook College, to help them learn new skills and improve their abilities in the kitchen.  Our aim is that these courses will become annual events so that cooks can continue to benefit from this ongoing skills training in addition to our existing rigorous training program.
