An evening with Mark Hix at The Clink, HMP Brixton

The Clink Charity is proud to announce a special one-night-only five-course dinner, including mocktail, with Mark Hix at our flagship restaurant inside HMP Brixton on Wednesday 16 July at 6:00 PM. 

Tickets are priced at £80 for this special event, which marks the beginning of a new series of high-profile chef collaborations designed to raise both funds and awareness for The Clink’s mission to reduce re-offending. Guests will hear from both Mark and Clink Charity representatives during the course of the evening, with the opportunity to meet Mark.

With over three decades at the forefront of the hospitality industry, Mark Hix is one of the UK’s most influential culinary figures. After 17 years as Chef Director at Caprice Holdings—where he oversaw iconic London restaurants including The Ivy, Scott’s, and Le Caprice—he went on to open several much-loved establishments under his own name, including HIX Oyster & Chop House, HIX Soho, Tramshed, and HIX Oyster & Fish House in Lyme Regis. Known for championing British seasonal food, drink and producers, Mark is also a renowned food writer and recently won awards for his weekly recipe column in Telegraph Magazine.

For this special event, Hix will collaborate with Clink chef trainers and student participants to develop a bespoke, produce-led menu. Diners will not only experience Hix’s signature cooking style but also witness how hospitality can provide purpose, structure, and transformation within the prison system.

The Clink runs innovative training programmes inside UK prisons and also in the community, offering participants professional qualifications, real-world experience, and structured support to secure employment after release. 

The Clink at HMP Brixton is open to the public and staffed by students working towards hospitality careers as part of their rehabilitation. 

We are so grateful to Mark for his time and passion for what promises to be a truly memorable evening.

All proceeds from the event will go towards The Clink's work to reduce re-offending.
