taking part in tea- tasting activities culminating in our very own Anchor tea blend. From there, it’s now full steam ahead towards

And taking a leaf Juice into January saw dozens of creative concoctions for smoothies and juices shared on Workplace to highlight the importance of keeping hydrated. It proved a winner with residents, with Mill View Home Manager Tee Tatum saying: “The recipes have been fab. Our residents have really enjoyed them and we’ve turned this into a full tasting session with scorecards. Our catering team created new recipes, adding a banoffee smoothie, cucumber and mint lemonade, a peach and passionfruit smoothie and a spicy ‘tomato Mary’ to name but a few!”
the ever-popular Chef of the Year competition which takes place in July, with last year’s winner Dawson Lodge Chef Manager Verity Sims being among the judges. National Catering and Hospitality Manager Noel Finnegan said: “Our four Chef of the Year finalists will be selected based on a portfolio of resident involvement, the nutritional value of their menu, and a colleague vote on Workplace. They’ll go forward to a live cook-off at Leeds Catering College on 5 July to decide the winner. “Inspire looks at how we innovate and improve the experience for our residents across four areas: Nutrition and hydration, care practice, environment and wellness. With all these great initiatives in 2022, it’s certainly giving our homes plenty of food (and drink) for thought.”
