Liz Thomas writes: In autumn 2022, we were lucky enough to receive funding from Community Champions to run a Healthy Eating Project at both our venues, The Holbeck and Mill Hill Chapel.
The aims of the project were to share information about the benefits of eating healthy food and also to provide opportunities for practising English.
We had great fun getting the message across…. we sang about healthy food with Community Music worker Nicky Bray, we held fresh fruit and vegetable tasting sessions and we shared recipes for healthy meals from different cultures. One of the highlights was when we were treated to dim sum freshly made by one of our regulars, Fai, who was a professional chef in Hong Kong.
The project culminated in a brilliant cookery workshop led by one of our volunteers, Leticia, who demonstrated how to make guacamole using a traditional Mexican recipe. The results were delicious!
Many thanks to Community Champions for making it all possible.
