The Cook & Converse events bring together those facing significant challenges when it comes to accessing good healthy food, with those in a position to do something about it. Through a cooking demonstration showing people how to make their own breaded chicken, homemade slaw and sweet potato chips, participants will be given suggestions as to recipes they can try for their families to steer them away from our British takeaway culture.
During the demo they will be cooking a meal for their invited guests and business leaders, health workers, and decision-makers from the local council, evoking a discussion about the challenges faced by this community, and potential solutions for when it comes to cooking at home.
