More information: 

The Ferry Project cookery school is based at Octavia View in Wisbech and is for anyone who wants to learn how to cook, or those wanting to develop their cooking skills.

As part of the Ferry Project, their Cookery School provides vocational skills and work experience in hospitality for their homeless clients, alongside training in useful cooking skills which equip them to live independently. This forms a vital part of the holistic homelessness support they provide to their clients.

Their Cookery School is also a social enterprise, which means that  by running classes, courses and events for the general public in their local community, it helps to generate an income for the charity which in turn helps them to continue their work to assist homeless single adults on their journey towards independent living.

The Ferry Project hosts free cooking lessons to their service users that are homeless.  Certain courses have been funded and are therefore free.  Please check with the Ferry Project for up to date costs.

Courses for the general public usually have a fee and can be paid per session.
