Ian Taverner

Ian Taverner, Mr Cookfulness, is a disabled cook, author, food writer and presenter.

Ian created Cookfulness, the first cookbook of its kind specifically for anyone living with disability, chronic illness or a new, anxious cook.

Ian found ways to get round, over or straight through the many physical and mental barriers that cooking and the kitchen can and does throw at you, starting even way before you get near the kitchen.

Ian has rewritten the kitchen and the cookbook rules!

Ian now delivers cooking courses, workshops and programmes aswell as live TV (Sunday Brunch C4) and radio appearances.

Ian is gaining a growing reputation among the food, health and wellbeing communities as a unique rising star, determined to help as many people as possible find some joy, happiness and greater independence in the kitchen.
