NOT JUST A CHEF, A MOVEMENT.

Punk Chef is more than food.

After becoming deaf at the age of two following meningitis, Scott Garthwaite built a career breaking barriers in kitchens, on television and on stages across the UK and beyond.

 

From cooking demonstrations and food festivals to television appearances and community projects, Punk Chef uses food as a platform to inspire, challenge perceptions and create opportunities.

 

This isn’t just about recipes.

 

It’s about identity.

 

It’s about resilience.

 

It’s about proving that disability is never a limitation.

 

Every event, every truck, every meal and every story carries the same message.

 

Deaf. Proud. Unapologetic.

TV / MEDIA

From national television appearances and documentaries to interviews, podcasts and food features, Punk Chef uses food and storytelling to inspire audiences and challenge perceptions.

 

Whether on screen, on stage or behind the scenes, every appearance carries the same message: deaf. Proud. Unapologetic.
