The Kitchen
“The Kitchen” is a , vibrant café in the heart of Ramsgate. Inspired by the TV chef Jamie Oliver’s “Fifteen” and his “Food Revolution” we have created a café which serves delicious healthy food and coffee in a fun and welcoming atmosphere which also provides training and employment opportunities for people to get their first steps into work.
We source our food from local ingredients through local suppliers wherever possible, and believe in serving tasty food and drinks at a reasonable price for everyone to enjoy.
As well as serving delicious food and drink we are also running a number of activities for the whole community to get involved with including healthy eating cookery courses and art and crafts. We are always looking for people to work with us, so whether you want to help out in The Kitchen, run an activity group, or have other ideas, please contact us.
The Kitchen is run by a partnership of two charities, Thanet Community Development Trust (TCDT) and Kent Enterprise Trust (KET).
Thanet Community Development Trust is a charity based in Ramsgate, whose aim is to improve the lives of Thanet residents who would otherwise have little chance of doing so themselves. It is recognised for its community development work and training opportunities to help people find employment. www.tcdt.org.uk. https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads#!/pages/Thanet-Community-Development-Trust/174668765926808
