Celebrating Inclusive Culinary Creativity: Helen Arkell attends the launch of ‘Deliciously Dyslexic’

Last week we were thrilled to attend the launch of Deliciously Dyslexic, a truly inspiring new cookbook by the talented by baldchefnick.

Designed with accessibility at its heart, this culinary gem is a game-changer for anyone who finds traditional cookbooks hard to navigate.

In the Great Kitchen at The Royal Pavilion in Brighton, Nick and fellow supporters welcomed staff from Helen Arkell to the launch which included some tasty nibbles and drinks, all from recipes inspired from the book. Following a very successful fundraising raffle on the night, we are pleased to say we have raised nearly £900 for Helen Arkell.

If you’re looking to support inclusive design and delicious food, this is one you won’t want to miss, and we think it makes an excellent birthday or Christmas present for all readers!

Deliciously Dyslexic is available to purchase from Amazon and all main bookstores.
