The Organic Cookery School is a not for profit community cookery school which offers DofE approved Volunteering and Skills activities to young people across the UK. Their ‘Community Chef Award’ offers Bronze, Silver and Gold participants the chance to use their cooking skills and enthusiasm to benefit their local community over 3, 6, 12 or 18 months, as well as gaining a level 2 food safety and hygiene qualification. Recent participants have volunteered in local food banks, cooked for homeless shelters, organized bake sales for their preferred charities, cooked for elderly or vulnerable neighbours, or provided healthy packed lunches in school holidays to local children who would normally receive free school lunches. Suitable for young people aged 13 years +
