intensively by making 1,000 meals a day.

British chef Tom Kerridge, who has proven his success in the gastronomy industry with 8 businesses including the 2 Michelin-starred “The Hand & Flowers” pub, rolled up his sleeves when he learned the limited access to the canteen and supermarkets of Wexham Park Hospital in London. Tom Kerridge started helping health workers with “Meals from Marlow,” which he co-founded with Chris Hughes and Andy Agar. “So it was like ‘OK, what can we do?… How do I help, when I’ve got a unit that produces food for an airline and corporate entertainment for football, Premier League football and does Formula One … that whole thing is shut down,” he told Reuters. Collecting £ 140,000 in 5 days from the GoFundMe page, the group began catering for health workers and those in need of assistance with donations from local food suppliers.
