Right now, so many people seeking asylum in the UK are living without a kitchen of their own, and the dignity of choosing what's on their plate. Banned from working, many are surviving on as little as £9.95 a week - often in a hotel room, eating the same food day after day, with no say and no guarantee of enough.
This is where Cook Up steps in. We give people seeking asylum a space to cook, a budget to choose their own ingredients, and a place to belong.
"When I came here, I felt like I'd met these people before... this family feeling." - Cook Up participant
Your donation this summer could give a family seeking asylum a meal that reminds them of home, the dignity of choosing it themselves, and a place where they feel safe, looked after, and part of a community.
