Most of children who seek help through Kids Company suffer from emotional and behavioural difficulties resulting from significant experiences of trauma and neglect. Many are ‘lone children’ living in chronic deprivation, with limited or no support from the adults in their family.
The Kitchen Academy mobile cookery school will be working from one of the Kids Company street level centre’s in south London. The children and young people taking part will get access to essential skills, learn how to cook and will get a healthy nutritious meal.
Jethro Carr who is the founder of Kitchen Academy said the following. “Cooking is an essential life skill and it will be the sole focus of these workshops to give kids the confidence to nourish themselves. The specially designed workshops will empower and enthuse kids into the art of cooking. The workshops will be targeted towards kids who have to fend for themselves when it comes to meal times. “
