The Welcome Table, by House of Welcome, is a work-integrated social enterprise that supports people seeking asylum and refugees to build skills, confidence and community connections while helping break down the barriers that limit their employment opportunities. Supported by the wraparound support services of House of Welcome, we create impact in three ways: 1) Delivering vibrant, multicultural catering from the heart of Western Sydney. People seeking asylum and refugees gain essential commercial cookery, food safety and workplace skills as trainees in our six-month program. In our kitchen, they build confidence and share their culinary heritage while creating fresh, generous food with professionalism and pride 2) Nutritious, culturally appropriate food for people experiencing food insecurity. Funded by partners and donors, these meals nourish individuals and families in our local communities. They offer comfort, dignity and connection, while demonstrating the contribution people seeking asylum and refugees can make to our society and 3) Shared cooking, cultural food experiences and volunteering. These food-based experiences bring people together around a shared table while supporting people seeking asylum and refugees to build confidence, practise communication and share their culture, forming meaningful connections within their local communities.
