Meals on Wheels

About Us

Meals on Wheels is for anyone that is no longer able to prepare meals, or has difficulty preparing their own meals. This may be due to age, disability or a temporary condition. Meals on Wheels can provide you with pre-prepared nutritious meals all year round. We have two menu types available: frozen meals or fresh meals. Independence is something we all value and to have that taken away by not being able to go to the shops for groceries or to cook regular meals, should not be an obstacle to autonomy.

Opening Hours: Mon-Fri 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Eligibility: To be eligible for this program you must be either over 65 (or 50 for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples) and be referred by My Aged Care (or your Home Care Package provider), or be under 65 (or 50 for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples) and be referred by your NDIS provider. Additionally, we can offer up to 12 weeks short term Meals on Wheels for people with an injury or medical issues.
