Bespoke Days with Hugh Fearnley-Wittingstall

Hugh is available to personally attend a bespoke event with you and your group.

Meet the founder of River Cottage - broadcaster, campaigner and food writer Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. Hugh would be happy to attend an event with you and your group, by prior arrangement. He makes no secret of his love for fishing so could join you on a boat along the extraordinary Jurassic Coast, or tutor a cookery session or host drinks before a private dinner. Alternatively, you may wish to invite one of our course tutors to lead your bespoke day. Our events coordinator can advise and arrange accordingly.
