Abstract
The diets of many of the UK population are failing to meet recommendations aimed at avoiding ill health. While the influences on peoples? diets are multiple and complex, people who are socio-economically disadvantaged tend to have diets that are less healthy than the average. In response to a concern that opportunities to learn how to plan and prepare meals have been lost over the past few decades, there has been recent interest in community-based courses aimed at adults who want to learn to cook. This review was commissioned by the Department of Health. It used systematic reviewing methods to identify the kinds of home cooking course that have been evaluated in the UK and to summarise findings from reliable evaluations.
