- Every Two Weeks (Thursday) @ 10:00 am
At House of Abundance, community is at the heart of everything we do and our partnership with Nourish Food School is a beautiful example of that in action. Our Community Cafe continues to welcome neighbours every week for a cuppa, a sandwich and good conversation, creating a warm space where everyone feels at home regardless of background or circumstance.
Alongside the cafe, we have been delighted to host a free six week cooking course right here at our Blackhills Road premises in Horden. Funded by Believe Housing and delivered in partnership with Nourish Food School, the course runs fortnightly on Thursday mornings, giving local residents the confidence and practical skills to cook simple, healthy meals from scratch using fresh ingredients.
Since the course began, we have already had some wonderful sessions, including a lovely gathering on 1st May where participants came together to chop, prepare and cook side by side, building both their kitchen skills and new friendships in the process. Each session has been a hands-on experience, relaxed and friendly, perfect for beginners and anyone wanting to build their confidence around food and nutrition.
We believe that caring for our community goes beyond what happens on a Sunday morning. Initiatives like this reflect our heart to support practical needs, build relationships and create opportunities for people in Horden and Peterlee to grow together, learn together and thrive together.
A huge thank you to Nourish Food School and Believe Housing for making this possible and to everyone who has joined us at the Community Cafe and the cooking sessions so far. House of Abundance truly is a place of hope, in every sense of the word.
