Sandy Docherty

Sandy Docherty is a cook and baker who is fondly remembered for her role as one of the contestants on BBC’s hugely successful The Great British Bake Off 2015.

Known for her bubbly personality and down to earth approach, Sandy spends her days working as a School Safeguarding, Welfare Officer and counsellor. Her role sees her building positive relationships with clients and young people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds. 

Sandy believes that baking enables everyone to express themselves in their own unique way. She enjoys teaching classes as it helps people bond and ensures a sense of achievement when they taste the finished results.

Since finishing the show, Sandy has been touring the country doing demonstrations at a variety of shows, whilst she continues to educate and engage with her audience through social media.
