100,000 tonnes of food is wasted by UK supermarkets every year
Healthy Eating Course
We have delivered two Healthy Eating Courses so far taught by our most loved cookery teacher Sharon Gardner. All the recipes taught are vegan using only plant-based ingredients.
With funding from Common Call, we were able to offer these courses free of charge. Throughout the 8 weeks course, participants were sent a free bag of ingredients prior to their lesson each week.
Check out the case study from one of our favourite students!
