Lisa Goodwin-Allen said: “We’re delighted to launch our new programme and welcome on-board new team members who bring with them exceptional skills and experience as well as a new energy and dynamic to help develop and showcase the very best of what our Northcote Cookery School has to offer.

“There are some fantastic recipes to be tried and skills to be shared.  

“Our programmes have been so popular in the past that there have been times when availability could not keep up with demand.

“With this expansion, with new dates, tutors and courses now available, we hope that even more people can come along to join us to see what all the fuss is about.”
