Our Ethos
Kind Kitchen aims to help Prestonians eat, and cook, good food at affordable prices, no matter their health, financial or social circumstances. We believe everyone should be able to eat well and stay healthy.
Our ingredients are locally sourced or bought, and prepared by women who have decades of experience cooking nourishing meals for their families. We don’t believe in processed food, loaded with preservatives and additives. All our meals are made by hand, with love, on the same day you get them.
From time to time, we’ll sell meals or food items to the general public. Any proceeds from sales will reinvested to fund meals for those in need in the Preston community.
Our popular cookery classes are led by Nutrition Champions who want you to enjoy your time in the kitchen. Whether you’re a beginner wanting to learn basic kitchen skills, or a more experienced cook looking for new recipes and advanced techniques, we have the right class for you. We also lead specialist cookery classes for diabetics and children.
We’re doing our best to help, one meal at a time.
Helping People Drive Change
We are conscious of the fact that we can’t change things overnight.
That’s why we empower our clients and communities, and equip them with the resources and knowledge to carry on the conversation and good work. However, this alone isn’t enough, which is why we work with organisations across the public and private sectors to inform policy practice.
Creating Better Communities
We use a combination of research, training and storytelling to give people the resources and skills they need to drive progress and change.
We pride ourselves on taking often complex information, and delivering it in an easy-to-understand way. Most of all, we believe in experimenting, trying new things and innovating, in order to solve difficult problems.
Let's Work Together
We aren’t going to solve everything on our own.
It’s bigger than us, but together we’ll create a better community for everyone.
