Bounceback Food CIC - Secret Dishes From Around the World 3!
Secret Dishes from Around the World 3 will be the third fundraising cookbook by Bounceback Food CIC, a community cookery school that has been fighting food poverty across the UK since 2014.
They are a community cookery school that, pre COVID-19, predominantly supported people living in food poverty in Greater Manchester, Cheshire & North Wales.
Since 2014 they have taught more than 2,500 people how to cook including stroke survivors, young carers, foodbank beneficiaries and elderly people living in sheltered accommodation. They have also donated over 10,000 items of food to foodbanks as part of our foodbank drive and generated almost 100,000 meals for people in need via the catering provision, community meal drives and workshops.

Dance Like a Mother CIC - COVID-19 Family Support, Bonding & Babywearing
Dance Like a Mother CIC is a Community Interest Company that started out teaching Dance Like a Mother CIC (DLAM) Babywearing Dance classes in 2016.
Originally as a way to help Mum’s get active and bond with their babies, it soon developed into much more, becoming a support group, a community, a place for families to come together, gain confidence and feel happier.
Now they are asking for help to raise funds to keep supporting new families in Greater Manchester. Funds raised will enable us to keep running classes during the current challenging circumstances, support the wider community, to pursue our business development and begin building the foundation of our environmental sustainability ideals.
