Published on the behalf of Nick Elmore

I am pleased to report that we have now secured the services of Gary Watty of Purple Chilli Catering to take on the kitchen franchise. Gary comes to us with good experience of Yacht Club Catering and we are confident he will be an asset to TBYC.

Gary will be taking over officially from 1st April and for any bookings please call Gary on 07854 229939.

Jo has kindly agreed to stay on to help with the handover to Purple Chilli Catering and our thanks go to her for going the ‘extra mile’ for our club. Well done Jo.

As with all new enterprise, it needs support. Please come down to the club and meet Gary whilst trying the new food experience.

After some years of good service and great food Jo has decided to vacate the Kitchen Franchise.

We now need to find a caterer to fill this position, we have had a number of enquiries to date and we would ask any member who may be able to assist in the search, to fully maximise the club’s options, then please contact me.

I would like to take this opportunity to Thank Jo and her team for the dedication and great service they have given to TBYC.
