What we'll do

Join us for fun, hands-on Healthy Holidays sessions where the Cook Stars will follow step by step instructions to cook delicious nutritious food to take home and enjoy lots of summer themed crafts and activities. In each session the young Cook Stars will make a delicious healthy and nutritious savoury recipe from scratch along with a fruit skewer / salad.. There will also be additional healthy food on offer to eat during the session. Each session includes crafts / activities / games and an opportunity to utilise the amazing Songbird garden for some outdoor activity. Each day will be different recipes and themed activities for a fun and immersive experience for all young Cook Stars to make new friends, learn new skills, build confidence, learn about different ingredients, try new foods and have lots of fun! . All recipes are tried and tested and will be enjoyed by even the fussiest of eaters. They are healthy and nutritious and include a range of fruits or vegetables to encourage the young Cook Stars to try new flavours. We will enjoy fun summer themed craft, activities and treasure hunts along with making delicious dishes to take home and share. In each session a small healthy buffet will be provided for all young Cook Stars to enjoy when all cooking and activities have been completed.

About your mentors

Neighbourhood Network

To connect, support and empower communities

We are small, friendly Hull & East Riding based charity, with a big reach - on a mission to work with and support people in making their communities safer and healthier. Our vision is that by being part of the Neighbourhood Network (NN) people will feel better equipped and informed to create safer and healthier environments in which to live and work, improving people's lives and health and well-being in the long-term. The NN accomplishes its goals through a diverse array of projects that are tailored to meet the specific needs of local communities in Hull and the Humber region. This flexible and responsive approach has allowed the charity to continuously evolve and adapt to the changing needs of the community, resulting in the dynamic and impactful organisation it is today. Today, the organisation operates through three primary pillars of work: 1. Community Safety: Empowering residents to care for their neighbourhoods, report local concerns and reduce their risk of crime through practical support and low-cost crime prevention equipment. 2. Menopaus’ull Support Network: Providing resources, information, and support to individuals experiencing menopause, fostering a sense of connection and understanding. 3. Alf Marshall Community Centre: Managing a community hub that delivers essential services and activities tailored to meet the unique needs of the local community, promoting empowerment and cohesion. By focusing on its three core areas of work, the charity is well-equipped to address community needs and collaborate with individuals to find positive solutions, while upholding its core values of trusted, community focus, collaboration, inclusive, and supportive.

Cook Stars Class Helper

Hi I am Andy, I am Sarah' s husband, class helper, washer upper, shopper and lots more. I love helping out in classes and seeing how much the children enjoy trying new things, building confidence, making friends and having fun at the same time as understanding how to eat healthy and cook from scratch. It is always wonderful to see how proud they are of what they have made. I was a Pastry chef in a Michelin Star Restaurant for 10 years, so I have carried on with my passion for cooking without all of the pressure of a Michelin Star Kitchen.

We are passionate about cooking and we simply LOVE good food! We strongly believe that a healthy lifestyle starts with a healthy relationship with food. We share our love of cooking through teaching children and teenagers how to create their very own dishes from scratch.

Making cooking Childs play

Teaching children to cook is a passion of mine. I love seeing their face light up when they have made something from scratch. I was a secondary school teacher for many years so it is a joy for me to be able to continue with the fun stuff, still do something that I love and still have a great work life balance. Our classes include fun activities for all ages.
