For over a decade\, we’ve offered free community cooking classes open to all. But with 1 in 3 households in Hackney experiencing food poverty and demand growing\, we’ve introduced a Pay What You Can model to ensure no one is excluded. \nIf you’re able to give a little more\, your generosity directly funds ingredients\, classes and resources for people who might otherwise miss out. This approach helps us reach more people\, run more classes and make the best use of our limited resources\, while keeping our classes inclusive and welcoming. \nImportantly\, we’ll continue to run free community classes alongside this model. This is a trial\, so if you have any questions or suggestions\, please contact us at classes@madeinhackney.org. \nSuggested contributions per place \n\n£10 – suggested minimum donation\n£20 – covers the full cost\n£30 – pays it forward for someone else\n\nIf you cannot afford the minimum donation but would still like to attend\, please email classes@madeinhackney.org. We will try our best to ensure that no one is turned away for lack of funds. \nWhen you come to a Made In Hackney cookery class\, you enjoy an enriching culinary experience and help us fight hunger in our community. \nRefunds: Please understand that our charity needs time to resell your tickets as we rely heavily on the income generated by our classes. We require a minimum of 7 days’ notice for any cancellations or transfers once you have booked onto a class. \nAt Made In Hackney we believe access to good food is a human right – not a privilege.
