Our goal for the 2025 period continued to be to help vulnerable individuals in London sustain their physical, mental and social wellbeing by teaching practical life skills to help sustain them through periods of both searching for employment and launching new careers in the hospitality sector. During the financial year 2025, Cookability's activities have benefitted the community in the following ways: 3 cohorts, representing 44 students aiming to start careers in hospitality received intensive knowledge and skills-based training in cooking and food related subjects, including: - Economising and cooking on a budget - Communication and collaborative skills required in a professional kitchen - Knife skills and essential cooking techniques - Level 1 Food Safety and Hygiene - Introduction to food allergens - Menu design for hospitality events - Hands-on design and delivery of of a Skills Showcase event for Hotel School partners - Small-step approach to eating well and adopting individual healthy living habits.
The company's principal stakeholder is The Hotel School (registered Charity no. 1176270), based in Victoria, London. During the 2025 period, the stakeholder group has been pleased with the level of consultation that Cookability has provided them, and have been satisfied with additional actions and changes to the food skills programme and approach as it has evolved to meet changing needs of its learners. In addition, online surveys were conducted with leaners to measure satisfaction levels at completion of the programme. During the 2025 period, the vast majority of learners from all 3 cohorts indicated a high approval and satisfaction rating of the cooking and nutrition skills programme, both for the theoretical and hands-on practical session.
