We are a community led social enterprise based in Winchester, Hampshire.
We create personalised events catering across Hampshire, Wiltshire and The New Forest.
We also run a structured programme of cooking demonstrations along with personalised nutrition consultation and one to one cooking classes; personal training; community fitness and community cooking workshops.
We believe that everyone should have access to good healthy food and feel empowered to live happier, healthier lives.
We are passionate about fighting health inequalities, empowering communities and helping individuals make healthy changes to adopt a more sustainable, towards plant based approach to food and nutrition.
All profits generated by our events catering, cooking demonstrations, personalised nutrition, cooking lessons and personal training are used to support our community programmes.
Our Community Cooking programme offers fun, structured, fully inclusive workshops for families with children, young people and adults with learning disabilities.
We run sessions both online and in person, with the aim to take the fear out of cooking and help people to develop the skills and confidence they need to cook from scratch, build a healthy relationship with food, adopt a sustainable approach to cooking, strengthen financial resilience and waste less.

We operate a towards plant-based ethos in all our catering, nutrition advice, cooking lessons and cooking workshops. We know that food production accounts for 27% of global emissions and well over half of these emissions relate to the farming of ruminants. Lowering our intake of animal products, as individuals and as a population, is not only better for the environment but also better for our health and more often than not, better for our pockets. With a towards plant-based approach we are encouraging people to lower their consumption of meat and dairy while introducing more veg and fibre to their plates (and palates).
We do our best to use British, in season produce and where this is not possible we try to focus on goods transported by sea rather than air.
All our food waste is composted, either in the hot composter at Unit 12, where we are based, or industrially.
As well as this, we are doing all we can to help people gradually adopt a safe and affordable approach towards a sustainable diet. Our Community Cooking programmes help people build the skills and knowledge they need to cook from scratch, using healthy, sustainable ingredients, away from highly processed foods and excess food packaging.
