About this Event

Join us for an engaging and hands-on cooking experience that celebrates the rich cultural heritage of Caribbean cuisine.


This practical session invites participants to explore traditional spices, ingredients, and recipes that have been passed down through generations. You will learn how food connects to identity, culture, and community, while developing your skills in preparing authentic Caribbean dishes.


Whether you are a foster carer, social worker, or simply passionate about cultural learning, this session offers a welcoming space to cook, connect, and deepen your understanding of culturally responsive care through food.


🌿 What to expect:



  • A guided, practical cooking session
  • Exploration of Caribbean herbs, spices, and flavours
  • Cultural insights into the history and significance of dishes
  • Opportunities to connect and share experiences with others


Come and experience the power of food in bringing people together—because culture is not just learned, it’s lived and shared.
