Accessibility and Inclusion

Our Commitment

 

At Our Italian Table, we believe that sharing food is about bringing people together and everyone should feel welcome around our table.

We are committed to providing an inclusive, respectful and accessible experience for all guests, regardless of age, ability, culture, language or individual needs.  We strive to ensure that everyone can participate comfortably in our cooking classes, events and experiences.

We do ask that should you have a mobility requirement, additional support person, assistance animal or need to bring your little one along in a pram,  that you please contact us prior to making a booking so we can ensure you are booked into a class that is best suited to you.

Please contact Jen directly on 0412 229 521 or complete the contact from below.

We look froward to welcoming everyone into the cooking school.
