Recipe for Life
Our Recipe for Life service is a volunteer-led service delivered at home and in small groups. It provides families with advice and support on a range of topics related to food, healthy eating and nutrition on an affordable budget.
The support is flexible and volunteers will be able to support you with a wide range of needs including:
- budgeting and shopping
- cooking skills
- weaning and breastfeeding
- healthy weights for children
- breastfeeding
- reducing food waste
Any family living in Aberdeen with a child under the age of five is eligible to take part in the project. We can provide all of the ingredients and cooking equipment which may be necessary for you to be fully involved.

We are so grateful for all of your help with cooking yesterday. The wee one has eaten everything! Thank you so much for reassuring me that the textures are fine for them to eat. You've really helped my worries about choking!
