Plymouth Soroptimists have donated a big batch of slow cookers to the Sunflower Women’s Centre in Plymouth.
Twenty women who access the Sunflower Women’s Centre Plymouth will have a slow cooker demonstration, after which they will each be given a slow cooker to take away, together with a slow cooker recipe book. Another cooker and recipe books will be for the demonstrator to use.

Soroptimist Terry West put the proposal to club members who readily agreed to fund this out of a legacy from two much missed members.
Terry said:
“The aim is to encourage women to cook nutritious and inexpensive meals for their families. We hope having a demonstration in a setting they are familiar with will boost their confidence to cook healthy meals from scratch and may even will encourage the next generation to enjoy making homemade food.”
Sunflower Women’s Centre manager Paula Carnell said:
“This is a wonderful opportunity and generous donation. To be able to run workshops to share with our women good healthy food options, cooked economically in the slow cookers which they will then be able to have and use for themselves and their families is truly amazing.
“The Soroptimists have always been very helpful and supported us to be able to give our women that use the centre opportunities to enrich their lives and empower them to feel confident to look after themselves and families.”
