Monday Club - Healthy Cooking Workshop

The Monday club were treated to a Healthy Cooking Workshop, run by Dave from Building Healthy Communities.

There was a short talk and a demonstration as to how to cook a quick, delicious and healthy stir fry, before all the members had a go for themselves.

Another really good session with some very positive comments. "Very Tasty" "Didn't think it would be so easy"
