Category: Family Welfare

The National Federation of Women's Institutes (NFWI), the largest voluntary organisation for women in the UK with 205,000 members in England, Wales and the Islands.

We play a unique role in providing women with educational opportunities and the chance to build new skills, to take part in a wide variety of activities and to campaign on issues that matter to them and their communities.

Let's Cook!

Let's Cook! is a Women's Institute led project to teach young parents in England and Wales how to cook healthy meals and shop and cook healthily on a limited budget. The project is supported by the Food Standards Agency (FSA).

WI members are trained to run free, practical courses in basic food preparation for young parents from disadvantaged backgrounds.

Each six week course benefits six to ten participants in communities across England and Wales. The volunteer WI members are trained to teach basic food preparation and cookery skills. This includes how to obtain a healthy balanced diet on a low budget, improve knowledge of food safety and hygiene and learn that cooking and eating can be enjoyable.
