Meals on Wheels Australia – Charity of the Month Recipient for October 2022
Meal on Wheels Australia has played a crucial role nationally in supporting the health and wellbeing of over 200,000 older Australians each year, across 592 service locations.
Meals on Wheels services represent a significant and essential piece of social infrastructure, providing front-line, early intervention and prevention in the home and reducing the malnutrition risk faced by 1.2 million older Australians and the social isolation risk to one in four who live alone.
Their purpose is to support well-nourished and independent communities through the delivery of a nutritious meal, social connection and a well-being check by our dedicated volunteer workforce.
From the ongoing uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic to devastating bushfires and other crises, Meals on Wheels is an essential service that continues to step up and support vulnerable members of a community at a time where it is needed most.
