The Editorial Features and Interview List for February 2016
Chantal Coady, punk chocolate pioneer and founder of Rococo Chocolates will be a featured, star interview on Ethical Hedonist Magazine in March 2016.
Alison Jane Interviews The Queen of Artisan and Organic Chocolate – Chantal Coady, Female Entrepreneur and Founder of Rococo Chocolate – discover the journey behind Chantal’s life as as artisan chocolate pioneer.What inspired her love of chocolate and curious ingredients? How did she persuade her bank manager to lend her the money, aged 22. We will also have a competition to win a yummy hamper of Rococo Chocolate.
2. Interview with model David Gandy talking about his new role as ambassador for Children’s Charity – Achievement for All, a charity that helps transform the lives of British children falling behind at school. Alison Jane also hopes to film the interview with David for our YouTube channel. I was looking forward to this interview. It’s an important topic. Please note, I have just been told that David’s pr people have decided that David is not available for this interview for Ethical Hedonist. Draw your own conclusions. As a journalist, I find dealing with the pr people who control access to people in the public eye at best frustrating. They frequently deny good journalists access. What a shame for the children and our readers. Instead of an interview, I will run a news story on David’s ambassadorial role instead and examine the wider issue of offering support to children in need.
