: The International Kitchen Project is looking for enthusiastic international students who are interested in introducing their diverse cuisines and culture to the local community. As a participant, you will join other volunteers from your home country and host sessions based around cooking a simple food dish with children and young people in local schools and youth centres on weekday afternoons or early evenings. Basic cooking skills are recommended, but not compulsory. It\'s a great opportunity for the local community to learn about diversity and the attractions of international cuisine and to use their own initiative and creativity whilst preparing the food.

Training: Some of the volunteers are trained by the food safety and hygiene courses

Location: Local primary and secondary schools, local Youth Centres

Times: Weekday afternoons(schools), early evenings (youth centres). Most sessions are on Tuesday-Wednesday and Friday
