KFE ON A MISSION returns for 2026, bringing award-winning training directly to fish and chip shops across the UK – all while supporting a charity at the heart of our industry.

This year also marks KFE’s 30th anniversary, making it the perfect time to stand behind the people who make fish and chips possible.

OUR FUNDRAISING LEGACY

In 2017, we raised £13,000, in 2019, £14,500, for 2026, we’re aiming higher than ever.

THE FISHERMEN’S MISSION
