Hours of online cooking
Thanks to a grant from the Heart of England Foundation, in 2021 we hosted online healthy cooking classes for community members in Solihull. Some of our participants were from single-parent headed families who often find it difficult to find the time to cook from scratch, others had disabilities which meant they sometimes avoided cooking out of ease and others were young people who recently have moved into independent living and were learning to cook for the first time! What they all had in common was a desire to learn new skills that would help them to cook healthy, budget friendly and most importantly, tasty meals from fresh and simple ingredients and from the comfort of their own home.
