Our 30th Anniversary Charity Cookery Book; "Able to Cook" (With Celebrity Recipes!)
Able Community Care has been providing live-in care packages for thirty years and in 2010, our 'pearl' anniversary year, we wanted to find an idea that would raise funds to help two charities that we were familiar with: Age UK Norfolk and Connects & Co, a charity which supports young carers.Working in the world of people's lives, the practical side of life is always there and what could be more practical than having the food of choice prepared and served to you in your own home when you are no longer able to do it for yourself. Over the years many recipes had been passed down to us from care workers and our clients and when the idea came as to how we could celebrate our 'pearl' anniversary a cookery book made up of our care workers and clients dishes came to mind. A Big Thank You To Our Celebrity Contributors!Later, to enhance this idea and to produce a book that would raise an increased amount of funds for the charities concerned, the idea came that we should seek recipes from famous people who had some sort of link with Norfolk, ask them for a recipe and to give us a reason why they liked to cook it. Letters went out, recipes came in and the result is a professional cookery book with recipes from people such as Sir Michael Caine, Joanna Lumley, Sir Ian McKellen, Dame Judy Dench, Joan Collins, Nicholas Parsons, Sir John Major, Bill Treacher, Felicity Kendal, Sir Richard Branson and Stephen Fry, to name but a few.
