Reclaiming Agency & Ageing Well: An Interactive Culinary & Psychosocial Workshop

Ms Lim Siew Eng Featured on Australian TV Programme “Silver Wellbeing”

(Taking back control, independence, and joy in daily cooking!)

“There’s still a chef in you.” 👨🍳✨  

Maybe standing at the stove for an hour feels different now, or hands aren’t as steady as they once were. But the joy of feeding people, sharing memories, and bringing people together through food never fades.  

Join us for an interactive, hands-on workshop designed for older adults, family caregivers, aged care operators, NGO leaders, healthcare professionals, and educators. Discover how practical, home-first culinary solutions can empower independence and foster meaningful social connection.  

🌿 Who Should Attend?

👵 Seniors & Families: Learn adaptive, gentle cooking techniques to stay active and independent in the kitchen.  
🏥 Aged Care & Day Centre Operators: Discover practical psychosocial programs and meal frameworks to implement in your facilities.  
🤝 NGOs, Insurers & Healthcare Providers: Explore innovative preventative health and community wellbeing models.  🎓 Educators & Skill Trainers: Observe intergenerational food therapy techniques and practical care modules in action.  

🎄 Italian Christmas Feast Menu (Pork-Free / Poultry Option)

🥔 Starter / Primo: Handmade Potato Gnocchi served in a light tomato & fresh basil sauce  

🍗 Main Course: Italian Herb-Roasted Chicken [or Turkey] & Potatoes — rolled roast chicken infused with rosemary, garlic & lemon, served with golden potatoes  

☕ Dessert: Classic Tiramisù — traditional espresso & mascarpone layer cake dusted with dark cocoa  

🕐 What We'll Do Together

• Mindset & Identity (2:00 – 2:15) — We begin not with recipes, but with a conversation. What does cooking mean to you? What does it feel like to hand that role over — and what would it mean to take it back?
• Smart Tools & Workarounds (2:15 – 2:35) — You'll try ergonomic kitchen tools and energy-saving setups designed to reduce strain without reducing joy. Cooking adapted to you, not the other way around.
• Low-Friction Recipe Build (2:35 – 3:05) — Side by side, we'll assemble a stunning Italian Christmas feast. Gourmet, nourishing, and entirely achievable — even on a harder day.
• Communal Tasting & Wrap-Up (3:05 – 3:30) — We eat together. We reflect. We leave with something real: new tools, new confidence, and a table full of people who understand.
