Founded in 2013 in response to the overwhelming need for opportunities for women who have faced social and economic disadvantage, we are more than just a bakery, we are a place of transformation.
We use baking as a practical, creative, and therapeutic tool to take women on a journey toward employability and entrepreneurship. Through our tailored programs, participants learn not only how to bake but also develop transferable skills that open doors to the professional world.
From our hands-on baking courses to work experience in our café, and paid employment within our bakery, Luminary is designed to holistically support women as they work toward independence and brighter futures.

By contributing to the cost of an apprenticeship at Luminary, you’re giving women who have faced significant disadvantages the chance to learn, grow, and build sustainable futures.
