Food On Friday continues to outreach some of the poorest families in Douglas, Whitfield, and the neighbouring communities, providing support for families to take responsibility to improve their lifestyles.
Their vital work within Claypotts Castle Primary allows relationships with children and their carers to be built. Cooking, gardening, heart health and tasting new foods are all provided by the project.
Anthea’s Cook Schools during the holidays continues the relationship with the children, and much fun is had by all over the 3 day programme. Many skills are gained, such as team work, cooking new recipes, fitness, gardening, knife skills and learning about kitchen hygiene.
Food on Friday also run other activities, such as Women’s Cooking groups, and 6th year pupils volunteering, where the pupils also receive some life coaching as well as getting experience in the work place.
Food on Friday, after hitting a tough financial blip, has driven itself forward into a place it has never been. Through social media, radio, television and networking promotion, Food on Friday has become well known across Dundee and respected for its achievements and successes in tackling childhood poverty.
Many new partnerships have been formed and they now look to a bright future.
Anthea of Food on Friday states that she is "honoured to work within this community and will continue to strive to outreach to the people who really need it."
