Cooking and Life Skills

Cooking workshops can be very beneficial for adults with learning disabilities in a range of ways — practical, emotional, and social.

All cooking workshops take place in our brand-new specially adapted Kitchen, 'The Strover Centre'. 

Developing Practical Life Skills

• They'll learn essential skills such as meal planning, food preparation, cooking safely, and cleaning up.
• These activities promote independence, helping individuals manage daily life more confidently.

Building Confidence and Self-Esteem

• Completing a dish successfully gives participants a sense of achievement and pride.
• Regular participation can build self-belief and encourage trying new tasks outside the kitchen.

Encouraging Social Interaction

• Cooking in a group fosters teamwork, communication, and cooperation.
• They'll share meals together, which strengthens social connections.
