A teenage Ukrainian refugee’s culinary ambitions have been aided thanks to a Liverpool charity that is determined to boost vocational opportunities for young people in the wider community.
Dianna Kysheniuk, 15, moved from the city of Kalush in western Ukraine to the UK amid the ongoing conflict in her home country last year, and now lives in the village of Westhead.
A passionate chef who recently finished second in a national competition featuring 14,000 chefs, Kysheniuk’s cooking has been supported by mentor James Holden and La Salle Hotel School Liverpool C.I.C, a charity that this weekend held a National Lottery funded-Croxtethvision - a special festival showcasing volunteering opportunities to young people.
