Check out the awesome work of the reconnect cooking group!


This group meets once a week over ten sessions, for the opportunity to grow in confidence in the kitchen, practice making healthy meals, and meet others with TBI.

This week, Gary, Cory, Vinny, and Richard worked together with rehab coaches Saoirse and Claire to make some delicious pizzas! Past sessions have included wraps, cannelloni, couscous and roasted veggie salad.

“I was a chef before my accident and I really like getting my hands back into preparing and cooking food,” says Gary.

Richard always enjoys helping out, “I love doing the dishes.” And Cory enjoys the group because “it shows me different ways to cook.”

As well as her role as rehab coach, Saoirse is a nutritionist. She provides great insight into the different plant and meat-based options, as well as nutritional meals within a budget. Great work all around team!
