The Surrey Skills Festival (SSF) and Summer Party took place on Saturday 13th July. This is the sixth year that this even has run and it is an annual event for looked after children and care leavers. Where the main aims of the day were to have fun alongside promoting independence and life skills for young people.

Our FoodWise coach Gracie had the pleasure of supporting the SSF in promoting independent living. Amongst a broad range of workshops, Gracie enabled individuals to try different foods and learn to cook some substantial meals including frittatas and pasta salad. The stall was all about allowing the individual to choose what ingredients they liked and seeing how they could create a well balanced meal with them. 

We had create joy in helping to provide the young people with the opportunity to feel empowered and inspired to accomplish new things.
