Demand for mental health services in the last three months has doubled with loneliness being one of the key contributing factors to poor mental health. To try and meet this growing need, three local Minds have come together to provide the ultimate fundraiser… a virtual Italian cook- along with Sofia, 2021 MasterChef contestant!
Mind BLMK, Herts Mind Network and Mind in Mid Herts have partnered up with professional local chef and participant of the new MasterChef series, Sofia, to provide a virtual authentic Italian cook-a-long.
On 18 March Sofia will be live and helping you to cook your very own Butternut Squash Risotto with Crispy Sage along with a tasty dessert, Vanilla Gelato, and on 25 March we will be coming together to create Porcini Mushroom Risotto and Chocolate Gelato, which you can enjoy yourself or with the family.
There will be two cook- along dates including Thursday 18 March and Thursday 25 March both starting at 6:30pm. There is a minimum donation charge of £17.50 (per event) to take part and you will be provided with a welcome pack which includes the ingredients required to cook the dishes. This could be the perfect Mother’s Day gift for you and your mum to do something together virtually, whether you live together or not. All money raised will go back into supporting the people of the Home Counties. To sign up head to https://www.mind-blmk.org.uk/support-us/cook-along/.
