Charity raises money for refugees with a monthly mobile kitchen which serves food from their countries of origin<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Oasis Cardiff team welcome everyone to their pop-up kitchen for a tasty meal<\/p><\/div>\n

A mobile kitchen that started off as a one-off has become a monthly event to help refugees in Cardiff.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Refugee Mobile Kitchen<\/span><\/a> is a collaboration between <\/span>Oasis Cardiff<\/span><\/a>, the asylum seekers and refugees who access the Oasis Cardiff centre and volunteers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Each event aims to raise money for the centre so that they may help local refugees, as well as providing catering experience for those who work in the kitchen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Matt Davenport, catering manager for the event, said: \u201cThose that are directly involved, will be exposed to a professional catering environment – developing skills in food hygiene and hospitality.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He added: \u201cMoney generated by the trailer will then be fed into the center, so even clients who do not directly involve themselves in the running of the trailer will benefit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Oasis Cardiff has around 100-150 visitors daily \u2014 both those who have recently arrived in the area, and those who have been here a while and want to socialise.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Refugee Mobile Kitchen originated at the Festival of Voice, as part of the refugee project run by the Wales Millennium Centre. <\/span><\/p>\n

The trailer was well received by the local community during the festival and so they launched it as a monthly event, held on the <\/span>premises in Splott<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The food served on the trailer is a reflection of the traditional cuisine eaten by the clients who access the centre.<\/span><\/p>\n

The money from each meal goes to Oasis Cardiff to help refugees<\/p><\/div>\n

Matt said: \u201cThe recipes have been directly developed in collaboration with them, to provide as authentic an eating experience for the consumer as possible.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In the year ending June 2017, 16,211 people were granted asylum, resettlement or an alternative form of protection in the UK.<\/span><\/p>\n

Oasis Cardiff helps refugees in the area to develop transferable work, and language, skills that they can take forward into the wider Cardiff community. <\/span><\/p>\n
