Empowering people to make better food choices
by learning to cook tasty, cheap and healthy meals together.

About Food etc

We all love food, but not everyone knows how to prepare healthy meals from scratch in the time they have available and on a budget.  That’s where we come in. Our team of volunteers works with groups in the local community in and around Bedford to teach these fundamental skills in fun, relaxed workshop settings.

We are passionate about empowering everyone from school children and their parents, to adult  community groups to make better food choices by equipping them with the knowledge and skills they need to be able to shop, cook and eat more healthily and cheaply.

Volunteer with Food etc

We’d love to hear from you if you’d like to make a difference in the community in and around Bedford and inspire more people to love to cook, shop and eat better.

There is huge demand for our cookery workshop courses where we teach people how to cook tasty, nutritious and cheap meals from scratch. So we are always looking for volunteers to join our team to help deliver them.
