Slow Cooker Groups
This year we have delivered three successful Slow Cooker Groups, with each group taking part in a four-week programme designed to build confidence, skills and knowledge around using a slow cooker.
Each week, participants learned two new recipes while taking part in interactive and engaging discussions covering a range of practical food topics, including meal planning, making the most of leftovers, shopping tips, eating well on a budget, food hygiene and safe food preparation.
Participants received a bag of ingredients each week to recreate the recipes at home in their own time. At the following session, they shared their experiences, feedback and helpful tips with the group, creating a supportive environment where everyone could learn from each other.
The programme not only developed practical cooking skills but also encouraged social connection, confidence and positive conversations around healthy, affordable food choices.
