About the organisation
Who we are
We’re a charity that works to reduce hunger, improve health and bring people together through food and cooking. We've been teaching people to cook for 25 years. We offer free and subsidised cooking classes to groups including: young people NEET, older adults at risk of becoming isolated, adults and children with additional needs, local schools, women in sex work and more. By equipping people with the skills, knowledge and confidence to cook, we aim to improve healthy eating, diet and mental wellbeing. Alongside our free and subsidised programmes, we offer an exciting schedule of masterclasses, workshops, private hire and teambuilding. We are now also providing event catering across Bristol. All profits from these schemes go to the charity to fund our food education work in the community.
