Changeworks and You Can Cook will be working in partnership to deliver the Award winning Kitchen Canny Kit to households in Edinburgh.
Kitchen Canny is a food waste reduction programme which helps households focus on their food waste and do something about it. It does this by taking them through a kit which has 4 weeks worth of activities in it, plus a final feedback week. You Can Cook staff will coach community groups through the Kitchen Canny progamme.

YOU CAN COOK have completed 3 programmes working with Under 18s for Scottish Borders Housing Association. The classes took place in the newly built Albert Place premises in Galashiels. The theme was healthy cooking with advice on budgeting skills, health, nutrition and cooking for a single person. The programme has been very sucessful so far and will be rolled out next year in other areas of the Borders.
The plan is to promote social integration using cooking as a way of bringing everyone together. Different ideas, tastes and cooking styles are used to help foster an understanding of diverse cultures, as well as increasing the confidence of participants to get together in an informal and friendly atmosphere. And it’s also fun!
You Can Cook can support organisations working towards a Healthy Working Lives Award Healthy Working Lives Award.
We can support and help organisations achieve the Bronze Award.
We offer a range of services to organisations looking to achieve the Bronze Award from cookery demonstrations (How to cook healthy and affordable meals) to workshops Energised Lunches (help motivate sluggish staff to be productive after their lunch break) and Food as Medicine (practical information on how to adopt healthy eating habits and use food in a medicinal way to reduce stress at work).
We cover the impact food has on your health and the environment in all the services we offer.
Workshops are an hour with tasters provided and are normally held on any suitable office premises. We provide all the equipment and ingredients.
You Can Cook was part of a case study in the HWL Autumn Newsletter that goes to many organisations/companies in Scotland.
