Groundwork London are providing free downloads of Creating Communities: Cooking, Crafting and Gardening from Across the World at Home. There are also a few hard copies for organisations.

Creating Communities

This book has been created and curated by individuals living in London from all over the world. We were brought together by a project called Full Circle, where refugees, migrants and people born in the UK came together to share creative and cultural experiences. In its pages you will find a collection of recipes, stories and ideas from our different backgrounds to show you some traditional and not-so-traditional ways of cooking, crafting and gardening at home and in your community.

Alone or with others, let us take you on a journey from crafting homemade bird feeders, to baking Syrian dates ma’amoul (celebratory cookies) or growing your own herbs for aromatic teas.

For people who are new to the UK, we hope this book can help you learn about the many different people who live here. And for people who have lived in the UK for a long time, we hope to show you that there is a small world of many different cultures here for you to explore.

Funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and produced by Groundwork London.

On the subject of creating communities, this is a lovely little film about a cafe in Wood Green run by an Algerian who does his own baking and was providing sandwiches for volunteers during lockdown. It was posted on Harringay Online .

Palmers Green has similar places, of course. All we need is someone to make films about them.

(And doesn't it now seem odd watching a film made during the Covid first wave when no-one is wearing a mask!)

While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions
