Our Corporate Programs.
Cook4Good – 2.5 hour program
Participants participate in the preparation of delicious, nutritious meals at our community hub space centrally located in Paddington NSW.
Meal preparation is undertaken oversee by a qualified chef and includes guided instruction that will make participants a whiz in their own kitchens. We say our chef is a cross between Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsey – but you can be the judge of that! We may even through in a Maggie Beer or Nigella Lawson style facilitator just to ensure you are full immersed in a “Masterchef” style experience while making a difference in the lives of vulnerable people!
Through a combined team cooking experience over 120 meals are prepared and then distributed to homeless shelters and centre’s for vulnerable people.
The program includes a facilitated learning experience about the purpose of the food and causes and impacts of homelessness or food scarcity.
The option exits for participants to attend the shelter and take the meals they have prepared. Alternatively, we can arrange for an organization representative to attend and collect the meals and speak to participants about their work.
The venue is located on public transport bus routes from Central, Circular Quay, Marrickville and Bondi and close to great eateries and drinking establishments so the team building does not have to finish when we do!
