What we have been up to
Our families have been working hard for the past year , trying out new recipes , trying new foods and having fun cooking together.
From traditional meals such as spaghetti bolognaise and stovies to quick fakeaways, Singapore chow mein and zinger burgers .
“Learning new skills and gaining awards was a bonus but nothing compared to the excitement of chocolate cake and Oreo cheesecake!”
Cooking Sessions
We delivered 38 online cooking sessions to 54 Sauchie families throughout the past year. In partnership with ECLD and Wimpy Park Community Group, each week we dropped off an ingredient pack with a recipe to make a hot family meal and provided an online demonstration for the parents and children to follow.
In partnership with the NHS we received funding for aprons for the participants and also 2 The Gate Foodbank supported us with holiday lunch packs for our vulnerable families during the February break. We supported local families through the connecting Scotland fund providing digital devices and WiFi to support homeschooling.
