Community meals on wheels

We deliver meals to older and unwell people who have difficulty preparing food. We carry out a welfare check during each visit.

The visit includes:

• cutting up food
• fetching a cold drink and cutlery
• reminders to take medication

We will also check that the person is comfortable and we can contact their family or a doctor if there is a problem.

Our meals are ready to eat when delivered. We offer a wide variety of meals and can cater for any allergies and specialist diets. This includes gluten free, low sugar (for diabetics) or soft food for people with chewing difficulties.

We can also deliver a teatime meal (sandwiches or salad).

You can choose how many days you receive a meal during the working week (Monday to Friday). At weekends we only deliver to the most vulnerable people.

Meals on Wheels costs £7.10 for a hot meal and pudding. The additional tea time meal is £4.15. There is no charge if a meal is cancelled.
