Bread Making for Schools, Care Homes & Community Groups
Martin has been teaching bread to mixed audiences for over a decade — school children, care home residents, community groups and event crowds.
The sessions look different each time. The result is usually the same: people who didn’t think they could make bread, making bread.
Sessions for schools
Practical, curriculum-linked bread sessions for primary and secondary age groups. Martin brings all ingredients and equipment — no specialist kitchen required. Sessions are designed around your timetable and tailored to the age group you’re teaching.
Children mix and shape dough, understand where bread comes from, and leave with something they made themselves. It’s the kind of lesson they remember.
Martin has delivered sessions as part of careers days, food technology programmes and enrichment weeks.

Sessions for care homes and community groups
Bread making is naturally social and gently absorbing. For care settings, it offers something hands-on and purposeful — a session where residents work together around a table, producing something real.
Martin adapts the session to the group. The pace, the complexity, and the format all flex around who’s in the room.
Live demonstrations at events
Martin has demonstrated bread making at country fairs, food festivals and public events across the UK — including the Kent Country Show. These sessions are different from workshops: designed for a passing audience, built for engagement, and focused on making bread interesting to people who’ve never thought about it.
People don’t just watch. They handle dough, ask questions, and understand something about how bread is actually made.

How to enquire
Every group booking is different, so the starting point is always a conversation. Tell Martin about your group, your venue, your numbers, and roughly when you’re thinking — he’ll let you know what’s possible and what it would cost.
