Family Foodies

Family Foodies is a free, welcoming cooking programme for families in Knowsley who want to feel more confident, connected and inspired around food.

For many families, mealtimes can feel busy, stressful or expensive. Family Foodies offers a friendly space where parents, carers, children and young people can learn together, build confidence and discover simple ways to make healthier food choices feel achievable.

Through relaxed, hands-on sessions, families can share time together, try new foods, learn practical cooking skills and take home ideas that make everyday meals a little easier. The programme is supportive and judgement-free, helping families feel encouraged rather than pressured.

Small changes can have a lasting impact. From children feeling proud to help prepare a meal, to parents gaining fresh ideas for affordable dishes and healthier snacks, Family Foodies is about creating positive moments that can grow into healthier habits at home.

You do not need to be an experienced cook. Whether you are looking for new meal ideas, support with fussy eating, ways to stretch your food budget or simply a chance to enjoy cooking together as a family, Family Foodies is here to support you every step of the way.
