Paula Blanchard - Area Manager at Durham Primaries Paula was awarded our 2021 You Made a Difference Award, at the 2021 Elior Award of Excellence. Her remarkable story, which started in 2019, was almost ‘Marcus Rashford’ like and saw her giving up her own time every week during the six-week school summer holiday to provide food provision for children on free school meals in a school where they were in serious danger of having no nutritional food during that time. Paula’s story is truly inspiring, and her profound impact brought tears to the eyes of our judging panel. Click here to hear from Paula herself. Making a difference by supporting the community Peter McGovern, General Manager, has been using his cooking skills to support the Boghall Drop in Centre in his spare time. He spent many weekends preparing hundreds of dinners for the elderly, he has also been sharing recipes and encouraging people to try new foods. One community member said, "Peter's skills and food knowledge allow him to share ideas and boost others confidence to try new meals, new ingredients and he has certainly been creative with the recipes. He has helped us and others in this community more than he will ever know. Some of these elderly people have had no human engagement and look forward to the food as it means the world to them." Gill Heath - Regional Managing Director at Elior UK We asked Gill Heath, Regional Manager, to tell us a little about how she got to where she is.
