Michelin-starred British celebrity chef Tom Kerridge is doing his bit to help overworked doctors, nurses and other front line workers get through the coronavirus emergency by churning out 1,000 ready meals per day.
Kerridge said he and friends set up “Meals from Marlow” following a social media post from Wexham Park Hospital, west of London, seeking help for staff who had no canteen and limited access to food in supermarkets.
“The food is actually being taken to them (doctors and nurses) physically on the ward and they can just stick it in a microwave and get on — it’s fuel to keep them going,” said Kerridge.
Noting the strong public response to his project and the large number of thank you emails, texts and photographs he has received, he added: “Little things seem to go a long, long way at the minute, emotionally.”
