Let's introduce you to Blend Culinary Foundation
Blend Culinary Foundation
Blend Culinary Foundation is a registered Community Interest Company (CIC) and sits at the very heart of our Blend Family. Building vibrant, authentic and diverse food halls is our business and Blend Culinary Foundation is our passion.
This foundation is the key way we show our core ethos to the world – nurturing diverse and vibrant communities, helping independents thrive and being a positive and active member of the communities we serve.
Through Blend Culinary Foundation we support our mission to alleviate food poverty and insecurity, to enhance food education, and to unite our diverse cultural communities through food. All proceeds raised through the foundation are reinvested to support this mission.
Supporting Our Community
Our mission is simple: use food as a force for good.
With three key strands to our operation – community, social and corporate – we support communities with food education, donate meals and raise funds to support our mission.
With community classes, social cookery classes, corporate pledge days, team building days and other events we raise valuable funds to support our local food banks and to give back to our community.
Whilst we don’t currently have plans to build a cookery school at Tower Bridge Collective, we do plan to ensure our work reaches into this local community in other ways.

Introducing Our Social Cooking Classes
Whether you’re a complete beginner or a seasoned home cook, our hands-on Cooking Classes are for you. Designed to be fun, informative, and inspiring, everyone is welcome!
Within our professional kitchen setting, we keep things informal and friendly. These are no ordinary Cooking Classes – they focus on learning new skills, creating amazing food, and creating memorable experiences. You can even make new friends over a cocktail or two.
Led by expert chefs, each class is an opportunity to share stories, explore global cuisines, and build confidence in the kitchen. Join us and discover the joy of cooking together!
And remember, all profits from our classes and events go to support our mission. Whether paying for freshly cooked meals that we supply to our local food bank or supporting cooking classes and food education for community groups and specialised groups for children and adults, you will be making a difference.
Based in our purpose-built kitchens on the 1st floor of Cambridge Street Collective in Sheffield and on the ground floor of Alfred Works in Birmingham, we are a modern space that runs a wide array of cooking classes. From our now-infamous Cooking & Cocktails (our Friday night social class) to our Bottomless Brunch classes on a Saturday afternoon, we have something for everyone.
Take a look, your next culinary adventure awaits…
