Walking 21718994539_kilt_walk.png1.5miles in the Scottish sun in a Kilt might sound like a nice day out for some, but for a 40 year old chef, father of 3 that honestly doesn't get enough exercise, this sounds like it could be worse than an 18hr shift in a 40degree C high pressure kitchen like I have done plenty of in the past.

Stop Hunger is a charity which was created by Sodexo the owner of the company I work for and I strongly believe in there cause. 

Stop Hunger works with national an1718994373_capture.pngd local charities to donate time, skills and money to tackle food insecurity and its root causes. Thanks to the financial support of Sodexo, 100% of the donations made to the Stop Hunger Foundation go directly to financing activities and sustainable solutions for disadvantaged communities to exit food insecurity. the Foundation commits to split equally its support between supporting charitable work providing immediate and emergency support (food aid activities) and addressing the root causes such as poverty, education, homelessness, etc.

For every £10 I raise I can be providing up to 40meals for people who really need the support so please be generous.
