Our mission at Refugee Cafe is to use the power of food to support local refugees and migrants into employment. As part of this, we run training programs aimed at empowering refugees and migrants with a background in hospitality to find work in this industry.

Through a combination of theoretical classes and practical placements, this course will equip trainees with the skills and knowledge to find work in the UK’s culinary and hospitality industries. Trainees will have the opportunity to gain foundational knowledge of the UK food industry, UK work experience, Level 2 Food Safety and Hygiene qualification and professional references. They will also receive one to one help to work towards your long-term employment goals.

This is an eight-week, part time course, for anyone with refugee or migrant status and a passion for food and hospitality.
