“The winning students will gain valuable experience working with our team here.”
The winner will receive a £300 Russums catering voucher, with £500 going to the winner’s college, two days work experience at The Sheraton Park Lane Hotel, and the opportunity to have their dish served at the British Poultry Awards.
