Joined by health secretary Matt Hancock and Chichester MP Gillian Keegan, Prue officially opened the city hospital’s brand new kitchen, before the VIPs served patients with meals cooked at the new facility. The new kitchen will serve up to 3,000 meals a day, including food locally-sourced from farms and businesses in the county. Speaking to the Observer, Prue said it was the ‘best institutional food’ she had ever eaten. More to follow.
