Charity's new kitchen creates opportunities for Christchurch's vulnerable
Happy Friday neighbours,
If you can’t handle the heat, get a new kitchen.
The Christchurch City Mission’s social enterprise, Thrive Catering, is relieved to have moved to a new state-of-the-art commercial kitchen as it continues to provide cooking classes and other essential lessons to Christchurch’s most vulnerable.
Thrive offers work experience courses for City Mission clients who are trying to get back on their feet. They are given valuable cooking lessons and other life skills to better their prospects for the future, when the mission no longer provides direct support for them.
The charity's Hereford St base kitchen had become too small, meaning course capacity was limited and many were missing out on learning vital skills.
