Our popular course explores, in a practical way, how our diet and lifestyles has an impact on the planet. Attendees learn and try new plant based recipes, spend time in the community garden and enjoy a delicious lunch. Live Well courses aim to grow community cohesion, sustain equal rights and open possibilities for residents living in disadvantaged or poor conditions in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
