We’ve been having a creative day making these decorations for World Oceans Day which is coming up on 8th June 🐟

If you’d like to have a go they are very simple to make with cutting out shapes from card, painting in vibrant colours and then suspending on some line- and they look great!

Today has been a fully packed day!

🙌 Making the soup and sausage rolls for the community kitchen (plus taste testing duties of course)

🍚Making a lunchtime meal of lentil curry, served with fluffy basmati rice and also handmade flatbreads.

🍽️A quick lunch break and team feedback on the meal…followed by washing up and cleaning.

🌿Then off to Healing Leaves where we are trialing a new venture with our interns helping in their healthy cafe! (More on this to follow shortly ❤️)

We LOVE baking here at Forging Futures and today we made a heart shaped chocolate cake 💕

It’s a good job we took some photos early on as it didn’t last long when the parishioners at St Mary’s Church came into the cafe!

Today felt like a no-bake cake kind of day because it was so warm- so we’ve been busy making crispie cakes and hopefully they won’t melt on the way home! ☀️

We hope you have a lovely weekend and enjoy the bank holiday 🥰

🥰 𝐑𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐎𝐟 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 🥰

Our series of random acts of kindness continued today with our interns baking cakes for the Wycliffe Medical Practice. Each intern has chosen the recipient and what to make for them so there has been a lot of planning involved as well as the actual baking 🙌

Today they worked hard making carrot muffins and we delivered them this morning to thank the staff at the practice for their hard work.

We did get to sample one and it tasted great!

Well done everyone ❤️

Today was a very peaceful day making these pictures in the style of a knot garden 🪴

It turned out to be quite a mindful activity with everyone really focusing on the tiny grains and lentils we used! And they look fabulous 🥰

It looks like they are slacking having a tea break but it’s been a busy morning making chocolate cup cakes and sausage rolls.

These will get snapped up!

Today is the anniversary of VE Day so we’ve been creating some British flags using different textures 🇬🇧

We’ve also been learning about animals and had some David Attenborough programmes on to celebrate his 100th birthday today! 🎂

Learning today about different diets as part of the ASDAN Qualification our interns are working towards .

We talked about vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian diets as well as meat eaters, and looked at how the various food groups support a healthy mix of nutrients 🥦🍊🍉

We also created a food and exercise diary and everyone will be reporting back next week!
