Culinary Innovations and a Commitment to Local Produce
Heather Robinson's culinary journey began at a young age, inspired by the vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients of her family's garden. Her passion for food led her to train at some of the finest restaurants in the UK, including The River Café in London and Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons in Oxfordshire.
Upon returning to her hometown of Marlborough, Wiltshire, Heather opened her first restaurant, The Dining Room at Atwell House, in 1992. The restaurant quickly gained a reputation for its innovative menus, showcasing the finest local produce and championing sustainable farming practices.
Heather's unwavering commitment to local suppliers has played a pivotal role in the success of her restaurants. She works closely with farmers and producers in Wiltshire and the surrounding counties, ensuring that her dishes feature the freshest, seasonal ingredients.

The YCA offers a range of programs, including culinary workshops, apprenticeships, and scholarships. Heather personally mentors many of the young chefs who participate in the program, sharing her knowledge and skills to help them develop their talents.
Several YCA graduates have gone on to become successful chefs in their own right, working at some of the UK's top restaurants. Heather's dedication to culinary education has had a profound impact on the industry, ensuring that future generations of chefs are equipped with the skills and knowledge to succeed.
