Crumbs! Cook and Learn workshops launch in Bournemouth

The Crumbs Project in Bournemouth has been awarded a charitable grant to fund local practical skills workshops for disadvantaged people. Cook and Learn workshops will launch this month giving individuals with mixed abilities the opportunity to learn practical culinary skills and gain experience of working in a professional catering environment.

A free taster session is available to people aged 18 and over who have experienced mental health issues, learning disabilities, acquired brain injuries and stabilised addictions.

“We are committed to supporting charities like The Crumbs Project to help them make a difference for disadvantaged people in the UK,” said Santander Foundation UK.

Leanne Miller, operations manager for The Crumbs Project said, “The Cook and Learn Workshops are a great opportunity for potential trainees to gain a unique insight into the professional training, support and facilities here at Crumbs. Workshop trainees can experience what Crumbs has to offer and explore the training programmes and internships available.”
