FareShare runs Eat Well Road Shows - one to two day training events around food hygiene, diet and nutrition. The events provide direct training to vulnerable people using the services of the FareShare Community Members, including basic food hygiene, nutritional advice and practical cooking skills
Part of the programme is aimed at the chefs, managers, project workers and catering volunteers who work for our Community Members
Since September 2007, over 200 people have benefited from these road shows and in some cases secured paid work in catering
83% of attendees who have facilities to cook for themselves said that they felt able to increase the nutritional benefit of the meals they cook at home having experienced an Eat Well Road Show
Almost 70% of people who cook for themselves said they now feel confident or very confident in the kitchen having experienced an Eat Well Road Show. For more information, please contact Wendy Lowe, Eat Well Project Manager, on tel. 020 7394 2466 or email. wendy.lowe@fareshare.org.uk
