Certain initiatives fall close to my heart and if I can help with imagery that will further the cause, I am always happy to volunteer my services. The launch of the Prince Albert Hospitality Academy by the Prince Albert Community Trust was one such feel good project – a beautifully presented evening under the stars to mark the start of this partnership with the Franschhoek Hospitality Academy, and a perfect example of what is possible when community, creativity, and care come together. The first small cohort of eight students began their training early 2026 marking the start of accredited, community-based culinary and service education in the Karoo, they will do Prince Albert proud.
