You waited patiently, and it’s here at last! Our brand new Skanda Vale Cookbook app brings together the very best recipes from the Skanda Vale Temple Kitchen with some firm favourites from the Hospice.

All proceeds from the sale of this app help us to provide free care for people with life-limiting illnesses. Our sincere gratitude and thanks to Richard Fairall for testing each recipe and developing this app.
