Guests will hear from broadcaster, journalist and royal correspondent Jennie Bond, who will host the Awards alongside Food Management Today publisher Graham Yandell MBE.
Jennie has extensive experience across the broadcasting industry, and her time as the BBC’s royal correspondent has left her with many anecdotes pertaining to the Royal Family’s activities. She has appeared on television as the voice of shows such as the Great British Menu and Rip Off Britain, and placed second on I’m A Celebrity: Get Me Out Of Here!.
