She is heavily involved in the first ever dedicated Children’s Food Festival and travels the country teaching children about good food.
"
When I walked into your marquee it hit me just how good it was - lots of happy children with hands in bowls
making good food - it was marvellous. I also loved watching you teach
children how to make sausage rolls, it was great, every day talking, you
stuck to the basics which is what we need to be teaching. Well done."
NORA SANDS, from Jamie's School Dinners

Amanda has become an integral part of the Festival and her tent conveys the principle message of the Festival - that hands-on cooking is the way to convert children to good food.
EKA MORGAN, Festival Director, Children's Food Festival
