Guernsey cooking classes help parents prepare healthy, affordable meals

Free cooking classes run by St Martin's Community centre and the Health Improvement Commission have been teaching parents to prepare simple, fresh meals.

• Parent Laura Weller said the classes built her confidence to cook healthy meals from fresh ingredients.
• Alex Kosmas from the Health Improvement Commission said the cost-of-living crisis makes it difficult for parents to find nutritious, affordable meals.
• Chef lecturer Rivelino Rodriguez taught a stir fry costing £2 per portion, designed to be cheap and adaptable.
• Parent Ros de Carteret said learning everyday cooking could help families save money.
