Top Furness chef is set to join line-up of major Cumbrian show.

The latest addition to the Food Theatre line-up at this year’s Cartmel Show has been announced as Mark Satterthwaite, resident head chef at the Blacksmith Arms in Broughton Mills.

Mr Satterthwaite will be keeping the crowds entertained with a chef demonstration using locally sourced ingredients, alongside other local food champions, Garry McClure and award-winning Grange butchers, Higginsons.

Mr Satterthwaite said: "Cartmel is known for being a foodie destination so I’m hoping for a captive audience as I cook.

"I’m looking forward to having some time to explore the show too as work usually prevents me from visiting."

Cartmel Show takes place annually on Wednesday August 7 at the Cartmel Racecourse, near Grange.

Tickets for sale at the discounted ‘Early Bird’ rate will be available to purchase at www.cartmelshow.com until July 31.
