Vegan Baking - POSTPONED

Masterclass - Vegan Baking - POSTPONED

The Event

Given the current advice to avoid social contact, we will be postponing our planned masterclasses until the situation has stabilised and will advise on new dates. This event was a charity fundraiser and we will greatly feel the loss of this income stream. If you are able to support our crowdfunding campaign to launch a FREE food home delivery service - taking healthy, nourishing food direct to the doorsteps of our most vulnerable community members, please donate and /orshare via this link www.crowdfunder.co.uk/made-in-hackney-4
