Wholesome cookery: Supported by our resident nutritionist, we can help you gain the skills to create delicious home-cooked meals. We use easy-to-understand menus tailored to your budget. Using take home recipes cards, we will encourage you to cook with and for your family, friends and carers.
“We make a lot of different food like Spanish food; scrambled eggs and then you put bread in and chilli. It’s spicy and you eat it with salad.”
– Lesley

Art practice: Tutored by a contemporary and commercial working artist, we will help you to develop your personal style and skills to express yourself through art. The group study artists, art history and culture through regular visits to galleries and workshops, as well as exhibiting and selling their original pieces.
“Generate made me an artist. I thought ‘give me a try and I can do it’. We take our pictures to an art gallery and sell them. I have sold two pictures. I felt on top of the world.”
