Meal delivery services

If you are having difficulties preparing and cooking your own meals there are various options you could choose to make mealtimes easier.

There is also an online directory of local community and voluntary groups which lists many organisations who can provide meals on wheels type services, as well as lunch and social clubs.

Meals on Wheels

Meals on Wheels delivery services may only be provided after an assessment by a care manager, which is subject to the eligibility criteria for the Adult Services department.

The service delivers hot meals for people who are unable to cook for themselves because they are old, frail or disabled and there is no one else who can support them. All meals provided meet the National Association of Care Catering Standards.
