The cookbook, titled Together: Our Community Cookbook, is a charity cookbook in aid of those affected by the Grenfell Tower fire tragedy. It is the first solo project for the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, was there to support her.

The former Suits actress had met a group of women during secret visits to the community who had started cooking for people around them whose lives had been destroyed by the disaster. She became close with the team at the Hubb Community Kitchen in the Al Manaar Muslim Cultural Heritage Centre in West London.

When she discovered they could only open two days a week because of funding an idea was born, and now months later she has launched their charity cookbook.

As well as promoting the fundraiser with a sweet video, she’s written a very personal three-page foreword for the book. She speaks about her experiences meeting the women at the Hubb Community Kitchen and why she believes food is so important.
