Do you want to help tackle food poverty through education, promote access to affordable, sustainable food through skillsharing, and help build community through shared meals? Then why not volunteer as a 'cookery buddy' at our Men’s Cookery Club!

Dates: Every Tuesday 7th October - 4th November
Time: 10:15am-1pm
Venue: Lichfield Community Hall

This cooking project is aimed at helping older men gain confidence in the kitchen and connect over a shared meal. Each week participants work in pairs to cook a new recipe and enjoy a communal meal together at the end, with the aim of reducing isolation and overcoming barriers that prevent men from preparing nutritious home-cooked meals.

We are seeking volunteers who can use their skills and enthusiasm to help us build a supportive and welcoming environment for participants. You don't need to have any formal cooking experience, just a passion for tackling food injustice and building community through mutual aid. By volunteering you'll learn invaluable peer support skills while reaping the benefits of cooking and eating together with new friends.

As a cookery buddy you'll help set up and pack down cooking sessions, support participants with tasks such as chopping, peeling, and stirring as they prepare simple, nutritious meals, and contribute to creating a warm, sociable atmosphere. We'll provide all the briefing and support you need to feel confident and have a great time in this role!
