Volunteering with Bags of Taste was one of the best decisions I made during lockdown, and I would really encourage anyone with an interest in food or healthy eating to get involved!

I have been volunteering as a Mentor, guiding groups of students from all over London through the Mentored home cooking Bags of Taste course. It only takes a few hours of your time a month, but it is very flexible and I can tell you it is well-worth the small commitment. It has been an extremely rewarding journey, and it has been amazing to see how someones eating habits, and whole life, can change in just a few weeks!

I have also loved meeting so many new interesting people, and I am so proud to be part of an organisation that is making a difference.
