BEDWORTH is hosting a kind community kind food event so residents can learn more about making affordable, healthy and sustainable food choices.
The event is a County Council-led engagement programme that has live cooking demonstrations and information about how to adopt healthier lifestyles.
Taking place at The Harbour Centre in Bedworth on September 21 between 11am and 3pm the event will see Warwickshire Food Champions, and several local groups involved in projects that grow fresh produce.
Attending the event will be organisations such as Act on Energy, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council, The Equality and Inclusion Partnership, Warwickshire Rural Community Council, and Warwickshire County Council’s Family Information Service, Community Partnership Service, and Public Health team.
Coun Heather Timms, Warwickshire County Council portfolio holder for environment, climate and culture, said: “The Kind Communities Kind Food events provide a great opportunity for residents to watch live cooking demonstrations and sample the dishes afterwards, collect free recipe cards, learn how to use slow cookers, and receive valuable knowledge to improve their confidence in preparing healthy, sustainable, and more affordable meals.
“They also enable residents to speak with local organisations to receive free energy-saving advice to help keep bills down, as well as learn about important health and wellbeing support.
“This not only supports the objectives in the Warwickshire Food Strategy, but equips the people in our local communities with the right knowledge to be able to live happier, healthier, and more independent lives.”
