Our values
As we’re a social enterprise, our values are at the heart of everything we do; they anchor us in our founding principles, whilst making sure we move forwards in the right way. Here are the core values that every member of our team shares.
We are:
Big thinkers and bold doers
We know that big challenges like food insecurity and social isolation need big solutions. So we dare to think differently and try new things, and we keep going until we’ve nailed it. And when something doesn’t go to plan, we treat it as a learning experience.
How can you tell?
We are:
Hungry for change and thirsty for success
We don’t buy into the concept of ‘It is what it is’. Instead, we take our founding belief that everyone has something to offer, and use it to create new places and programmes which support people to develop and thrive. When they succeed, so do we.

We are:
Open-hearted and close-knit
We believe that meaningful connections make life more satisfying. So we use food and cooking to bring people together, and to build links that last. From community members to corporate clients, everyone is welcome in the Cook for Good family.
How can you tell?
We are:
Respectful and committed
We put dignity and respect at the heart of everything we do, and work hard to earn the trust of the people we serve. As a result, our community know that we’re in it for the long haul, and feel confident that we’ve got their backs.
