Jon Watts is a professional chef, recipe creator, and influential social media chef. After getting into serious trouble as a teenager, Jon was sentenced to six and a half years in a young offenders’ institute. He was determined not to fall into the vicious cycle of reoffending, so he took on every opportunity he could to learn and develop. He picked up cooking and was the first person in custody to achieve all three Duke of Edinburgh awards. After leaving, he secured a job at one of Jamie Oliver’s restaurants before setting up on his own. Jon has gained national exposure through his social media profile and TV appearances, such as on ITV’s This Morning. Away from cooking, Jon uses his story to inspire a range of audiences, from businesses to at-risk young people.
