Summary
Cooking clubs or sessions typically involve groups of participants working with, say, a health professional, and take the form of a series of practical cooking sessions. Members of the group may take it in turn to cook different recipes and then everyone gets to have a taste. They are often aimed at families on low incomes with pre-school children, and may be attached to an under-fives facility or mothers' support group. After school clubs, kids clubs and Sure Start Centres are also being promoted as good venues for cooking clubs.
