What it’s about:

The coming together of tax hikes and the spiralling costs of energy, labour and raw materials has put many businesses in the hospitality sector onto life-support. The Abergavenny Food Festival brings together people from all across the food sector; growers, manufacturers, suppliers, cooks, restaurateurs and food writers.

We are convening a special event to talk about what can be done. Chair: Sheila DillonBroadcaster, Presenter of BBC 4  ‘The Food Programme’.
