A little kitchen confidence can go a long way to support your health and wellbeing. Our step-by-step classes build participants’ skills and confidence in cooking from scratch using fresh ingredients to encourage higher fibre intake and alternatives to ultra processed / sugar-rich foods. Sign up for a four week course.

By using simple ingredients like wholegrains, beans, lentils, fruit and veg, you can create filling, nourishing meals that support your long-term health. Fibre-rich diets are associated with lower risk of non-communicable diseases, including some cancers, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes (University of Dundee).

Cutting back on sugar doesn’t mean cutting out flavour. Reducing sugar helps support a healthy weight, steady energy levels, and lowers the risk of conditions like type 2 diabetes and heart disease (City St Georges, University of London). We’ll show you simple, affordable ways to cook from scratch and enjoy naturally delicious meals and snacks at home.

Information displays and friendly professionals will be available to offer guidance, answer questions, and signpost to cancer support services. Opportunity to speak to Dr Caroline Perkins and Dr Peter Lillie (clinicians from Nightingale Valley Practice) in a non-clinical setting.
