Our next podcast is out and this episode sees Charlie and Kieran meeting the founder of The MAZI Project in Bristol, Melanie Vaxevanakis. 

The MAZI Project empowers Bristol’s disadvantaged young people through an aMAZIng meal box scheme which helps to support and change lives. Set up with a believe that the dining table is an opportunity for connections to be made, to feel included and to feel taken care off, The MAZI Project is about spreading the love we all need to those who need it most through food. Charlie and Kieran spent the day finding out about some of the inspirations and feelings behind the project as well as giving a helping hand with the boxes on volunteer day.

Charlie & Kieran have been on their travels again, this time travelling to the heart of Bristol to meet up with long-term Real Olive friend and well-known chef, entrepreneur and community food champion, Josh Eggleton. 

Josh shares insights into his projects past and present, as well as talking passionately about food issues within communities and how you can help support yours.  Be warned, this podcast contains explicit language but anyone who knows Josh will know that it wouldn’t be a true reflection of his character if he didn’t drop in the odd explicative!
