CAMPFIRE'S BURNING

Switchback Trainees saw a different side of London this month when they went to cook lunch on a campfire in Epping Forest. Braving thunderstorms and damp sausages, HD and OT did a great job. They built the campfire, prepared vegetable kebabs, corn-on-the-cob and BBQ meat and finished off with roast chocolate bananas. They returned after their day in the urban wilderness soaked through but re-engerised.

DEHESA DISH FOR SWITCHBACK

Salt Yard regularly offer Switchback trainees invaluable opportunities to build new skills - now their sister restaurant, Dehesa, is raising money for Switchback!

Get yourself down there to sample the "Grilled Squid and Chorizo Salad with Pickled Red Onions, Pea Shoots and Guindilla". They'll make a donation to Switchback for every dish sold!

The perfect excuse to try the best tapas in town!
