Healthy Cities Australia (HCA) is excited to share that our much-loved Cook Chill Chat (CCC) program is expanding outside the Illawarra for the very first time, and across into regional NSW! Thanks to funding from COORDINARE Southeastern NSW Primary Health Network, twelve new programs will be delivered between now and June 2026 in Shoalhaven, Goulburn, Queanbeyan, as well as the Illawarra.  Cook Chill Chat isn’t just about learning cooking skills, but also provides a space to build connection, confidence, and community.
