Food safety is on the menu for Dervock communities
Ultoniae Cultural and Heritage Society were approached by community based groups from the Bushmills and Ballintoy (North Antrim area) to solicit financial support for organising a Food Safety '˜Level II' course '“ a prerequisite necessary in food proficiency.
Frankie Cunningham, Project coordinator explained: “The basis for this small community-led event was to develop the Local Empowerment and to target specific groups especially women within the PIP II application. Thanks to the funding, the candidates now have a recognised qualification that will allow them to deliver programmes/projects – that brings the greater community togetherness (Social Inclusion), strengthen both personal and community capacity and that raises community spirit (Community Cohesion).”
This social event was supported by Ultoniae Cultural & Heritage Society, through the PIP II initiative (Local Empowerment and Women) - funded by the ‘International Fund for Ireland’.
