Murray Chapman, founder of A Passion to Inspire, said: “A very special Day planned to Inspire Scottish students and lecturers – and a fantastic culinary journey ahead.

“All colleges from across the whole of Scotland are invited – for free – and a massive thank you to May and City of Glasgow College for their help and support – once we know the numbers of colleges that wish to attend we can then look at number of attendees per college – estimated minimum two lecturers and eight students.”

The Upskill Day will feature:

• Rupert Rowley, development chef at MSK Ingredients
• Graeme Cheevers from Unalome  
• Dan Ashmore, group executive chef at Dean Banks Restaurants
• Willie Pike, Scottish culinary legend  
• Ross Sneddon, executive pastry chef at The Balmoral Hotel
