It is an absolute honour and priviledge to be teaming up with the incredible team at NHS Hampshire & Isle of Wight's Vocational Neuro Rehabilitation Centre to provide cooking coaching classes as part of the Adult Building Skills Programme!  We will be working together for a year and I absolutely can't wait.

What a fantastic group today! Lot's of questions, lots of interactions, lots of suggestions and sharing what they do to help with their cooking, awesome! What was so clear was that everyone has their own unique experiences with cooking, what might help them, what they want to achieve, what they think they are capablle of, how they want to cook!...

October 2025 Group

An amazing group to have for a 2 hour special today!  It was so great to have so much chat going on amongst the group, sharing ideas, hints and tips and asking loads of questions about cooking and the dishes I was making.  I think it is fair to say that the Plum, Peach, Honey & Black Pepper Caprese Salad was the real star and hit of the day!

It is so special to see that cooking fog lift just enough to allow people to see the possibilities and taking away some hints and tips to help get them cooking more and more!

June 2025 Group

The first session!!  So much fun with an absolutely incredible group. It was a packed house with lots of staff comign along too, think they'd heard there was food to be tried!  This was so much fun and with a really intrigued group wanting to get some cooking tips, which they also started to share between themselves of their own successes so just fantastic!

The star of the show here was definitely the jewelled rice!  Hearing feedback from everyone that they loved this and have already tried it themselves since was so emotional!  Such a simple dish too but using ingredient mixes you might not normally put together, but you should!  Recipes for the Jewelled Rice and Lime, Cranberry & Coconut Balls are attached below-
