Let's Get Cooking


Happy children with spoon in the air

'I encourage all businesses to participate in this fantastic programme. Helping children and communities learn how to cook and giving them confidence in their own ability is not only a joy but makes a longstanding impact on their creativity, their health and their wellbeing.'

Thierry Laborde

According to the House of Commons Health Select Committee, the cost of obesity in England is between £6.6 and £7.4 billion per year.

Businesses are part of the solution in fighting health inequalities and helping young people, their families, employees and the wider community to understand the importance of a good diet and how to cook healthy meals.

Companies signed up to the Let's Get Cooking programme can help address the key issues of health, obesity, nutrition, education, skills and employability.
