Kris Hall began his career as a sales representative for a food supplier specializing in high-end restaurants, allowing him to see what was going on behind the scenes for chefs and other hospitality employees. It was during his own battle with depression that he realized that he was not alone, that others also struggle to express their problems with mental health. He decided to take action by raising awareness of mental health issues in the hospitality industry.
Association
The Burnt Chef Project
Kris Hall began taking black-and-white photographs to raise awareness of mental health issues in the hospitality industry. Around him, the demand for help and advice grew, prompting him to create The Burnt Chef Project in 2019. The association strives to break the taboos surrounding mental health in this sector by offering support, resources and advice to those concerned, while encouraging open discussion and the search for solutions.
