From our humble beginnings, we have witnessed firsthand the challenges that arise from a lack of knowledge, resources, and healthy outlets for young people. A lack of access to resources and social structures often leads to poor decision-making and even mental health struggles. At SS Life Skills CIC, we are determined to change that narrative.

Since starting our workshops independently, we have equipped over 500 young people with the skills and confidence to cook nutritious meals. Our workshops are designed to make cooking fun, easy, and accessible, igniting a lifelong passion for food and self-sufficiency.

Thanks to the support of Shirley's Jollof Paste and funding from the National Lottery, we have expanded our reach nationwide, offering workshops more consistently and impacting even more lives.
