Spend two weekends learning how to cook and prepare basic roux, sauces and also knife skills prepping vegetables and salads.

You'll have the opportunity to plan nutritious meals, cook a variety of healthy dishes and enjoy making sweet treats for your stay with us.

You will also have the opportunity to cook a meal, either outdoors or on our canal boat, weather permitting.

An important part of the course is that it provides the opportunity to meet new people in an unfamiliar environment.  You will be living and working with others, buiding new relationships and working as part of a team.  It is for this reason that the Doke of Edinburgh's Award recommend that only a small minority of those taking part should be known to the participant (i.e. participants should only know one other person on the same course).

N.B. We will need a minimum of 8 applicants, two weeks before the start date, for this course to run.

All meals, accommodation and equipment are included.
