Executive chef and founder of restaurant group The Cinnamon Collection, Vivek Singh, is hosting a ‘Curry for carers masterclass’ to raise money and awareness for Carers Worldwide, a charity supporting unpaid carers and their families in India, Nepal and Bangladesh.

Kicking off at 4pm on Saturday 9 July live on Zoom, Singh will demonstrate how to prepare two of his dishes: the spice crusted sea bass wrapped in banana leaf, and spiced paneer with fat chillies, before baking the sweet Indian dish thekua – a recipe derived from one of the family members supported by the charity.

Singh said: “Carers around the world dedicate their lives to looking after others and they are true heroes. However, just like any other human being, they themselves must be looked after and we shouldn’t forget to take care of them. I am very pleased to offer my help and support to this fantastic small charity and am very much looking forward to hosting the masterclass.”

Anil Patil, founder and executive director of Carers Worldwide added: “We are incredibly grateful to Vivek for volunteering his time to run this masterclass for us. The money raised from ticket sales will help us fund our vital support for carers and their families in India, Nepal and Bangladesh. For 10 years now, we have recognised that caring can adversely affect the wellbeing of carers in many ways and here at Carers Worldwide, we are committed to transforming the lives of carers and ensuring that their own needs are routinely met.”

Tickets for the live zoom masterclass are on sale for £27.54 with proceeds going to Carers Worldwide. A list of all ingredients can be found within the ticket link, so participants can prepare at home before the class begins. To book, visit here
