Meet Katy.

Katy Newton is an award-winning food expert, founder of Wasted Kitchen, sustainability champion and real food obsessive - or, more simply, the person you want in your corner when it comes to making food feel possible.

Winner of the BBC Food & Farming Awards and holder of 15 Great Taste stars, Katy has spent more than a decade helping people cook with confidence, waste less and reconnect with food that genuinely nourishes.

Through consultancy, speaking, education and practical knowledge share, she works with individuals, organisations and food businesses to rethink how food is sourced, cooked, communicated and valued.

Straight-talking, deeply knowledgeable and refreshingly practical, Katy brings energy, real-world experience and a flavour-first approach to every plate, podium and project.
