One Mile Pontardawe featured in The Bay Magazine (July 2019)

Teaching your first baking class is nerve-wracking. Having a journalist – let alone the editor of a local magazine and a photographer – coming to your baking class is nerve-wracking. Combining the two, so you are being reviewed as you teach your first class is… well, you guessed it! Lesley & Mike at One Mile

Baking With Boudicca – OMB Exeter featured in Manor Magazine (late Winter, 2019)

THE SIMPLE THINGS

Interview in the beautiful The Simple Things magazine about why and how I started OMB and the second phase of the business: mentoring others to run their own One Mile Bakery. The reach of this magazine is incredible – I had people from Australia and New Zealand getting in touch after they’d read this, wanting

OBSERVER FOOD MONTHLY

I’ve always been a huge fan of Observer Food Monthly – consistently the best weekend newspaper food supplement and a must-read in my house (aka OMB HQ). So, it was beyond thrilling to be featured in the magazine, in a long interview – over some baking, of course – with the brilliant Miranda Sawyer.   https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/jun/18/how-baking-helped-save-my-life

WELSH COASTAL LIFE

Loved being invited to feature in the magazine’s Food Hero slot!    

THE SUNDAY TIMES

Honoured to be included in this list – in The Dish food magazine supplement in the Sunday Times – of 30 Best Bakeries in the UK. If someone had told me years ago, when I worked in the features section of the Scottish office of the Sunday Times, that I’d be appearing as a baker

TELEGRAPH

Thrilled to be included in this list of the top 20 bakeries in the UK, compiled by Diana Henry, one of my favourite food writers. I remember seeing this (they’d also used one of my beautiful bread photos on the masthead), high-fiving the OMB cat and dancing a jig around the kitchen. Yes, I was

STYLIST MAGAZINE

One of those super proud moments: my micro-bakery, in my Cardiff kitchen, included in Stylist Magazine *and* in the company of some of my favourite bakers across the UK. So, so chuffed to be in such esteemed company.  https://www.stylist.co.uk/life/recipes/the-uks-best-bakeries/38634

TRUE LOAF

One of the earliest pieces I wrote about how OMB came about and why I kept the scale so tiny. (In short: necessity, mother, invention). This is from True Loaf, the quarterly magazine of the brilliant Real Bread Campaign – their work is so vital, and they are a great support to micro-bakers. Their headline –

CARDIFF LIFE

This was the biggie: the editor of Cardiff Life came to review my brand new Breads of the World class. It was so new, I hadn’t actually road-tested it – slight panic when I realised he was bringing a photographer with him! We had a lovely class, with the usual mix of flour and laughs

THE GUARDIAN

Another of the turning-of-tables moments for me, early on in the One Mile Bakery adventure. Call from the new Cook section of The Guardian on Saturdays – would I like to be featured in their Meet the Producer feature? It was extra special, appearing in the paper I’d written for over so many years. Bit giddy, too,
