How does it support CSR and wellbeing?

It supports corporate volunteering targets and promotes connection and purpose.

The Charity Cook Off is a high-energy, purpose-led team event that brings people together through food, creativity and collaboration.

Teams work side by side to cook delicious dishes, guided by professional facilitators, with a unique twist: every team prepares double portions. Half of what is cooked is donated to a local charity or community partner, helping to support people in need.

This fully mobile event can be delivered anywhere in the country, whether at your office, a hired venue or a conference location. It encourages teamwork, communication and friendly competition while creating a tangible social impact teams can feel proud of.

Ideal for organisations supporting CSR and ESG goals, corporate volunteering targets and workplace wellbeing.
