Smart Food For Smart Students

Who's Hungry?

STUDENTS

Research has repeatedly shown that students are failing to cook and eat to maintain nutritional well-being. Data from the British Nutritional Foundation indicated 18-year-olds are six years behind their real age when it comes to cooking from scratch. Further to this, survey data suggests as high as 18% of students are consuming takeaway food up 5 times a week (Sorted 2021). The result of these behaviours is a demographic who are skill deprived, lacking in knowledge, unhealthy and out of pocket.

This research comes at a particularly difficult time for students. The prominent cost of living crisis means a student loan is simply not stretching far enough, and now more than ever key skills in food and nutrition are needed.

LET'S MAKE A CHANGE

Created by Students for Students.

Hi, I'm Nell,

Having done 3 years at University the lack of cooking knowledge in students was something I saw everyday. I created Cooking Class with the aim of better equipping students like me to cook their way to a healthier lifestyle. I knew that creative, fun and accessible content that students actually want to engage with was the way to go!

Cooking Class now consists of an Instagram page, Tiktok, Bereal, Website and Blog with hopefully more to come.
