While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.

Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.

For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.

Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions

“If we all choose the fastest mode of travel in a city, the whole city gets slower – and more congested”

There have been a number of recent postings about modelling transport. This article, based on a research paper printed yesterday, covers modelling and congestion impacts prepared by members of Oxford and UCL universities.

The full (heavy reading) research piece is available via The Royal Society; TRS being as high as it gets in UK science.

It compares everyone acting selfishly (in driving a car in their analysis) versus choosing a transport mode to benefit society as a whole rather than simply themselves. It appears more active travel by more people is the way to go for everyone to benefit. "By trying individually to win, we all lose."
