Meal times
All food is cooked and prepared on the premises using fresh ingredients
bought from local suppliers. We have a four weekly menu which has been
approved by a nutritionist.
Each day, service users take turns
in assisting with the preparation of the meal. We take into
consideration preferences and offer alternatives where necessary. Our
kitchen supplies fresh fruit for the morning break and prepares packed
lunches for outdoor activities.
