Prue Leith’s career has spanned over five decades and along the way she’s learnt a thing or two about embracing life and everyday joy.
Join Village Books and James Allen’s Girls School for an entertaining evening with Prue where she’ll be looking back on her career and sharing some insights from her new memoir.
Nothing is off limits: from beauty, staying active and finding fame on The Great British Bake Off, to friendship, family, and the occasional regret. She tackles the big questions we all have about getting older with the same frankness she brings to discussing finding love, the right time to retire, fashion, travel, and gardening.
Wise, witty, and wonderfully human, this book will inspire us all to face the challenges of ageing with good humour, pragmatism and confidence.
Prue Leith made her name with her Michelin-starred restaurant Leith’s, and Leith’s school of Food and Wine. She has written sixteen cookery books, eight novels, and her memoir was published in 2013. Her first television appearance was in the 1970s as a presenter, and she returned to television to be a judge on The Great British Menu for 11 years. Prue Leith has most recently been on our screens in the sixteenth series of The Great British Bake Off, for which she has been a judge since 2017.
