All are welcome to join this community lunch catered by Climatarian Kitchen at WISH, on 19 January 2026 from 12 pm -2 pm.

We know just how necessary community and connectivity are to our well-being. Blue Monday (the third Monday of January) is often regarded as one of the dreariest days of the year. We’re joining the nationwide campaign to support mental health and self-care during this time with a home-cooked meal and our local community.

? What to Expect
Music: recorded music featuring local musicians during the meal
Food: Our talented Climatarian Kitchen team will prepare a delicious, climate-friendly menu. Climatarian Kitchenis a surplus cafe and catering kitchen where our mouthwatering meals are made using food surplus or local, seasonal ingredients. By using surplus ingredients, we redirect food that might be wasted back into the community.
