Apple Pressing in Kimberworth Park…

Over the past few months we’ve been developing and building upon our relationships with the Chislett Centre and other local partners in Kimberworth Park, Rotherham to provide sessions around Healthy Eating and Health and Well-being.

As part of that programme, we recently visited the Junior Youth Club at the Chislett Centre to do some Apple Pressing with the young people who attend the club. Whilst the apples didn’t generate as much apple juice as we had hoped, it was a real opportunity to show the young people where some of our food and drink comes from; generating good conversations alongside learning new skills and increasing their well-being.

We are also working with the Chill and Chat group which meets at the Chislett on Tuesday evenings on some Cook and Eat sessions, alongside the local Cubs and Scout groups. If you’d like us to deliver similar sessions in your settings, please contact Jonathan Buckley on jonathan.buckley@ymcawhiterose.org.uk.
