Ken Garner

Head Chef

Ken trained as a chef in the late 1970s and has enjoyed a varied career in hospitality ever since. Starting in an Italian restaurant, he progressed to Head Chef before going on to work in prestigious venues including The Savoy Hotel, central London hospitality venues and film location catering. He joined Ashbrook Court in 2025, bringing decades of culinary experience and a passion for creating delicious, home-cooked meals.

As Head Chef, Ken leads our kitchen team in preparing nutritious, high-quality meals tailored to residents' tastes and preferences. He particularly enjoys creating special events and themed menus, with the home's popular BBQs being a particular favourite, bringing residents, families and the team together to create memorable experiences.

Outside of work, Ken enjoys spending time with his family, including his three children and eleven grandchildren. A passionate animal lover, he also cares for four rescue dogs, three rescue chickens and a rescue cat, and enjoys spending time outdoors.

"Food brings people together, and I love creating meals and special occasions that residents can enjoy and remember."
