Fat Macy's - Expert Impact

Meg Doherty

Fat Macy’s

Met With Jim Cregan

Fat Macy’s works with young Londoners living in temporary accommodation. We provide a pathway towards independent living by inviting them to train with our chefs and front of house team to deliver culinary events and catering across London.

“It was unbelievably helpful to bounce ideas around and get a sense of direction and focus after these months of great uncertainty. I’ll go into the next few weeks and months with a lot more confidence that we’ve made the right decision, and have a whole host of ideas to try out.”

Meg Doherty, Founder, Fat Macy’s
