All over Ireland, there are six-week nutrition and basic cooking courses taking place. The small-sized classes are generally held one morning or afternoon per week (evening courses are also held).
These courses are fun and interactive and are a great way to learn about food and nutrition, as well as picking up some clever cooking tips.
Courses are delivered by tutors who have been trained by HSE community dietitians. Most of the courses are free, while others charge just a nominal fee.
