Formed in November 2024 after the success of the Food and Cookery Group 1 (now k/a Aprons and Appetites) to allow other members to join.

Like Aprons and Appetites, activities will include:-
Sharing Recipes; Attending Cookery Courses; Eating out together; Fine Dining experiences; Group Cooking in Members’ Homes; Visits to Food Shows & Producers.
Update! The group name has been changed to just Food & Cookery as Group 1 is now known as Aprons & Appetites
