An accomplished Head Chef who has created, opened and operated the kitchens in some of London’s most prestigious restaurants in recent years. In addition to my restaurant work, I have made numerous TV appearances including BBC1’s Saturday Kitchen Live and UKTV’s Food Market Kitchen, as well as radio with Chris Evans on BBC Radio 2. I have hosted many large consumer food shows including the Saturday Kitchen roadshow, BBC Good Food Show Live and Summer Time Kitchen at Hampton Court in 2015. Previously I have been Consultant Chef to British Airways on their inflight food and am a Patron of the National Kidney Federation.

Lawrence has written two books: Food for Life, from which all proceeds went to the National Kidney Federation, and also Rediscovering Food & Flavours: The Kidney Care Cookbook which is available both on the Kidney Research UK website and also on Lawrence’s own website.
