FREE Cooking Classes for Seniors
Have you lost your motivation to cook meals for yourself ?
Do you sometimes skip meals ?
Do you sometimes think you need more skills to cook better meals ?
Have you lost your confidence in the kitchen since the family left home?
If you answered YES to all of those questions these classes might just what you need !!!
* Every Tuesday morning 10.30 - 1.30pm
* Victory Community Centre
Learn about nutrition, eg meal planning, stretching your budget, cookery terms, portion control, deciphering food labels, tips to increase motivation and more.
We do the theory in the first hour, followed by a demonstration of how to make a meal, then you make that meal and when it's ready we sit down together and eat, clean up and go home.
You may possibly meet people you would like to stay in touch with, it's more fun eating with others than by yourself.

Poll: Should we be pushing a soft-plastics recycling rollout across the whole region 🗑️
Nelson City Council has confirmed that the kerbside soft plastic trial is continuing for the current 1,000 homes. It’s a fantastic step towards being more sustainable, but many of us are still waiting for our turn.
We want to know: Should we be pushing for a rollout across the whole region? Or are you happy to keep using the drop-off points at the supermarket for now?
Is this something your household would actually participate in! ♻️
