The 8 clients of the Apuldram Centre and three volunteers were given three two-hour sessions on topics such as food handling, storage and preparation, food poisoning, pest control and hygiene. The District Council is committed to training in order to facilitate a more inclusive, caring society.
Training is important to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to realise their full potential.
The knowledge and skills learned will definitely benefit them in their home life. It has also enabled our clients to become more involved in the preparation of our sale produce. We have a tea shop, we produce our own cakes and jams and we grow fruit, vegetables and flowers for sale. We run Chartered Institute of Environmental Health courses every month but we can also tailor the courses to suit a particular group of people.
