A recipe for success
F ood plays an important part in our lives and in our care homes, where we pride ourselves on the quality and choice of the catering we provide to our residents every day. To showcase and challenge our colleagues producing nutritional, great tasting, and exceptionally presented meals, we hold an
annual Chef of the Year competition. Deputy Chef Manager Sam Mellish, from our Moore Place care home in Esher, is this year’s winner and used feedback from his home’s residents to develop winning dishes for the competition.
We regularly have welcome offers for existing Anchor housing residents moving into our care homes. For details, please contact Rachel Dodd-Smith during working hours on 07483 946072* or email Rachel.Dodd- Smith@Anchor. org.uk
