Meals on Wheels
Meals are home delivered for people who may be nutritionally at risk, have difficulty preparing meals or are socially isolated. An added benefit of delivered meals is the regular face to face contact with the volunteers who deliver the fresh or frozen meal/s, from Monday to Friday. Meals are delivered at approximately the same time each day between 10.30am to 1.30pm
Council’s own Karralyka kitchen staff prepare all meals to a very high standard. The seasonal menu offers 4 main meal choices daily and includes soup, main meal and dessert. Some special diets can be catered for.
