Simon Rogan said: “I couldn’t be prouder. Welcoming the first cohort of fourteen students to the Simon Rogan Academy is a hugely positive step as we begin our journey together. Alongside this cutting-edge learning programme for chefs, I’m pleased to be able to launch a similar industry leading learning package for front of house colleagues.

“The industry has struggled in recent years, especially because of Covid, but this is the first of many steps we will take in helping to create a truly professional industry, an industry in which people can achieve their true potential, whilst being fully supported and mentored every step of the way by their peers.’’
