In a profession that operates 7 days a week, diminishing resources that result in turnover rates far above average, and little to no training in leadership or health and wellbeing, the demands on our workforces are high and the impacts to mental health are startling and require immediate action. We are committed to supporting the mental health and wellbeing of every person connected to the hospitality industry whilst also building the capability of owners, line managers and employees, through training and enhancing awareness.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
