Cooking Up A Storm at Connect Men’s Group

At a recent Thursday meet up of our Black/Asian men’s forum (BMF) group the challenge was set to cook and eat together at Feel Good Factor.

Aulson Lawrence, our Men’s Connect Development Worker explained… “The guys were challenged to cook three Caribbean dishes with a healthy twist, using minimum salt and healthier options with certain vegetables. We then all sat together to eat and it was very good.”

Our Connect Men’s Group meets Tuesdays 11.30am – 1.30pm at Thackray Museum, Small Core Room, Beckett Street, Leeds, LS9 7LN. Then on Thursdays 11.30am -1.30pm at Feel Good Factor, and the Real Connect Men’s Health & Wellbeing Group meets Fridays 6pm – 8pm also at Feel Good Factor.

The aim of Connect is to reduce social isolation and improve physical and mental wellbeing. We do this through a variety of ways, including lots of fun and banter, quizzes, discussions and activities.
