Happy 15th Birthday to Us! 🥳

Yes, today we are celebrating 1️⃣5️⃣ years of cooking up community change... hooray!

Our social enterprise catering business started on this day back in 2010 but our journey of influencing change has been one of kindness.

And yes, catering is about food but for us ChangeKitchen CIC has always been about people.

People in our fabulous, diverse and vibrant community along with...
🧡 our staff team (past and present),
💚 our Board (we are so very grateful),
🧡 our volunteers (you are truly amazing),
💚 our partners (such as Jericho and FareShare Midlands among so many),
🧡 our funders (who support the VCFSE sector),
💚 our supporters (including Social Enterprise UK and West Midlands Combined Authority),
🧡 and our customers... corporate organisations, Kindness Cafe customers, venues, market organisers, local businesses and every one of our social media followers (yes, YOU).

Special mentions have to go out to Tony Colville and Jo Burrill as our longest serving Board members, Richard Beard and Katie Webb of Jericho for being amazing, and Peter Holbrook CBE who always believed(s) in what we are all about and the change we are so passionate about creating.... to change food insecurity and enable food justice for all.

Do you have a special memory of ChangeKitchen CIC?

With deep gratitude and great excitement as we look ahead to the next 15 years,
