Charity
The Better Food Foundation, set up by Jamie Oliver, is a registered charity that exists to EDUCATE, EMPOWER and INSPIRE people of all ages to make better and more-informed food choices. We aim to arm people with the tools to make those choices and food is at the heart of everything we do. We set out to instill positive eating habits that will last a lifetime; make good, clear information available and teach practical skills to as many people as possible; encourage individuals to get cooking from scratch; and inspire people to take greater control of their lives. “My charity aims to inspire people to reconnect with food. It’s all about raising awareness and individual responsibility, resuscitating dying food culture around the world and, ultimately, keeping cooking skills alive.” Jamie Oliver

Fifteen to Fifteen in 24 hours (269.5 miles)
Diet-related diseases kill more people every year than cigarettes, drugs and alcohol combined. It costs governments billions every year. And it's entirely preventable.
The Better Food Foundation educates people about food, teaches them to cook, campaigns for food education in schools, takes unemployed young people and gives them a new start in catering, and inspires people to live better, healthier lives.
I'm cycling 269.5 miles, between Fifteen London and Fifteen Cornwall, in 24 hours, hoping to raise £1,500 (!) for the cause.
This event is not going to be easy. I will have to wax my intimate areas. I will crash. I will cry. I will get cramp. I will have to cycle through Swindon. Please, please show your support and help new generations have a better life, all around the world.
