therapist and cooking daily living group

What are Daily Living Groups?

Daily Living Groups currently run Mondays and Fridays from 4.15 to 5.45pm within our full sized kitchen.

They are groups of 4-6 teens who are working on developing self management skills such as

  • procedural thinking

  • comparative thinking

  • grey level reasoning

  • integrated reasoning

  • time management

  • money management and many more.

Groups are focused on cooking and cleaning skills, with group activities planned to meet the goals of each individual participant whilst also learning vital cooking and cleaning skills.

Participants will learn to use a range of kitchen equipment, trial modified equipment and learn how to do laundry.

"I watch cooking change the cook, just as it transforms the food."
