Hi folks,

Thanks for dropping in on my Just Giving Page. I really appreciate it.

I need your help to raise money for an amazing charity - The Shiva Trust Mental Health Charity. They are a vegan farm, animal sanctuary and are very creative at supporting those living on the margins of society through social farming and environmental projects. One of their latest projects is to erect a large poly tunnel where children and adults living in poverty and deprivation can come and grow their own veg. They can get involved in the growing and nurturing process, spend some time on the farm and find some much needed mental solace and peace. I share their love of bringing community together with a vision of creating wholesome, natural produce and making the world a better place bit by bit...

The COOKATHON

Cooking from 9-1 with the intention of preparing 200 meals: 40 soups, 80 mains and 80 desserts.

The food will be enjoyed by our residents staying in the YMCA in Liverpool and the money raised will support the Shiva trust’s mental health work and animal sanctuary.

You can donate to the cookathon via Just Giving and join in on the insta lives via Health on the Hob throughout the morning; all support and donations are welcome.

I hope to raise £1000 (if you donate £5 to buy one meal/ £10 for 2 meals/ £20 for 4 etc) and it would be great if we smash it.

About me: I'm a Liverpool GP and plant based health professional, passionate about a plant based diet for the health of all. I promote a whole food plant based diet for our health, the health of all animals, species diversity, our soils, environment and climate, to protect us from zoonotic viruses and reduce antibiotic resistance. I’ve written a plant based cookbook called Health on the Hob and will be cooking recipes from this during the cookathon, including chocolate brownies, veggie curry, stew and mash, minestrone soup and crumble and custard

Thank you so much for visiting my page. Whatever you are able to give, genuinely makes a difference in someone's life so I am truly thankful for any support you can offer.

Together we can do this people. Let's smash it!
