Cricket legend and TV personality Darren Gough’s first job was here at Fosters Bakery.

Darren is a cricketing legend, a well known TV personality and star of Strictly Come Dancing but his first job was as a Saturday Lad here at Fosters Bakery.       We are very proud of Darren’s achievements.   His dad Trevor knows Fosters Bakery almost better than we know ourselves; he  has been one of our business partners for decades and his brother Adrian’s is now one of our trusted business partners.
