Introduction
In January 2019, Anne Elliot and a group of 10 women - who use the REH or are part of Artlink's community projects - have had the unique opportunity to work with the Soul Food Sisters Community Kitchen in a series of workshops in Glasgow.
We wanted to make links for women outside of the hospital and mental health community, providing them with the opportunity
to experience something entirely different. Soul Sisters introduced them to Turkish, Polish and Algerian
foods, working together to make breads, dips, sampling soups and gluten-free recipes. These workshops were inspirational, encouraging all involved to be more adventurous in their food choices, building new friendships, learning new skills, and most importantly having the opportunity to learn new cooking skills from some amazing teachers.
"It was fascinating meeting women from different countries and learning how
to cook their local delicacies. It was always a lovely atmosphere; there was a good camaraderie. Whilst we were learning something it was always great fun at the same time." Sue
