our story

From a dream to Reality

A drawing of an onion with the word migrateful written on it.
Inception

The Migrateful idea was borne following Founder Jess’ discussions with a group of refugee women at a skill exchange project in Tower Hamlets.

The Revelation

The women in the group were all very qualified, yet were unemployed because of legal and linguistic barriers and their qualifications not being recognised in the UK. When asked about the skills they could share with the group, many of them said they could cook.

Our Mission

This gave Jess the idea to launch Migrateful in July 2017; with the aim to get these women into employment by supporting them to share their incredible cooking skills with the world.

Join us in crafting a story that transcends borders, one dish at a time.
