Chief executive appointed at The Clink Charity and Restaurant

Moore has 25 years experience in the hospitality sector, previously working for Fenwick Ltd, the independent department store group, as head of group restaurants. Prior to this, Moore worked at Harrods Ltd as restaurants general manager and developed the in-store restaurants and food hall eateries. He has also held positions at the Hilton Hotel group in the UK and Holland and trained with the Holiday Inn hotel group in New York. He commented on his new post: "I am thrilled to join The Clink and take on this immense and rewarding challenge which lies ahead of me. I am going to be focusing on increasing awareness of the work and skills being developed at the clink as well as securing support from the industry and finding the necessary funds for expansion. "I will also be sourcing knowledge and industry skills that can be passed on and shared with the trainees. "Currently 70% of all prisoners released from UK prisons re-offend within the first year. I hope to demonstrate that The Clink aims to reduce the number of re-offenders by equipping the men with qualifications, skills and real restaurant and kitchen experience whilst they serve their time that can be put to use once released, therefore protecting potential victims of crime."
