At Saffron Kitchen Project (SKP), we support displaced persons by creating opportunity and fostering community through food. 

We are a UK registered non-profit organisation that creates high quality, nutritious meals for vulnerable communities in Athens. 

Inspired by multiple cultures and traditions, we aim to do three things simultaneously: Nourish, Train, Employ. 

Our first pillar - Nourish –  Provides vulnerable people with warm, nutritious and inventive meals in a dignified and sustainable way. We partner with several organisations that support vulnerable people throughout Athens, distributing delicious meals whilst avoiding food waste as much as possible.

The second pillar – Train – We offer free culinary education and vocational training in partnership with IEK Delta. In an effort to prepare our students for work in the hospitality industry, the programme comprises culinary skills as well as soft skills training such as teamwork, leadership and time management. Upon completion students will receive an accredited EOPEP certificate which will aid them in entering the job market.

Finally, the third pillar – Employ –  We demonstrate our commitment to tackling unemployment in Greece by not only employing but also generating job opportunities for people from the refugee and hosting community.

Our mission is to create community and a pathway to employability for people from refugee backgrounds using food as the tool kit. A destination that leverages food so people can eat, cook, learn and most importantly, belong.
