BIOGRAPHY
Jennipher Marshall-Jenkinson has been a 'healthy eating guru' and 'inspirational cook' for many years.

She has been Chairman of the UK's Microwave Technologies Association since 2003 to the present day.

Her work promoting healthy eating and environmentally friendly cooking methods prompted a nomination for 'Business Woman of the Year' and regular cooking programmes on BBC radio - both national and local and BBC television, where she has been guest presenter on 'Rip off Britain - Food', Sky's Market Kitchen and the famous prime time television programme 'The One Show'.
These continue to provide her with frequent invitations to give cooking shows around the world, including world conferences in Miami and Florida and even cooking on the stage in Caesars Palace, Las Vegas.
In addition, throughout 2020 and 2021, Jennipher has given many 'on-line' talks and shows to various audiences.

Her latest cook book - Microwave Magic - the Heart of 21st Century Cooking also won 'The People's Book Prize'.

Jennipher, a mother of 2 great boys spends most of her time educating others about her passion - good food and how to cook it properly, though, there's always time for her hobbies, which are Scouts, assisting with her favourite charity - the Amos Trust, where she works 'at the coal face' in Durban. Before Covid, Jennipher visited South Africa as often as possible to assist with getting Durban's street children off the streets and back into the community.
Jennipher also sings in the 'Rock choir', loves Pilates and generally keeping fit through lots of outdoor activities.

Her love of travelling also inspired her to set up two interesting travel companies: 'Chile Inside Out' and 'Good Mountain Guides', and with her continued hunger to learn more about the customs and cultures of the people she meets around the world, she is always planning her next trip somewhere around the world often with various cruise ships, where she has been an 'on board cruise ship speaker' since 2007.

In August 2021, the UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson awarded Jennipher his "Point of Light" award in recognition of her services helping her local community.
