SportsAid Week: Supporting the next generation of British athletes
By Olivia Parker
As you may already know, we're the official nutrition provider to the English Institute of Sport and have many athletes enjoying our healthy meals, from Tom Daley to Victoria Pendleton CBE.
We've now partnered with SportsAid - the UK's leading charity that supports promising young British athletes, by helping them overcome the financial obstacles they face in their bid to become Britain's next generation of Olympians, Paralympians and world champions.
This SportsAid week (24th-30th September 2018), we invited SportsAid alumni & Olympic Gold Medalist Georgie Twigg and current athlete Morgan Males, U21 England Hockey Player, to join us in the Mindful Chef kitchen. They cooked up our sticky sesame chicken, egg and kale rice with Co-Founders Myles and Giles! You can try a similar recipe, of Sesame Chicken, Egg & Spinach Rice.
We'll also be hosting a nutrition workshop at Mindful Chef HQ for SportsAid's up and coming athletes, reinforcing the importance of nutrition on athletic performance.
