Good nutritious meals are a very important part of health and well-being for elderly persons living independently in the community. Because dietary intake is often reduced, due to health problems and decreased activity, it is even more important that meals provide the necessary nutrition for good health.
Program Offers Hot and Frozen Meals to People Who Need It Most
HOT & FROZEN MEALS
Hot and frozen meals are available throughout the week. The menus we use are supervised by a Registered Dietitian and are consistent with the requirements of Canada’s Food Guide.
WELCOME
MORE THAN JUST A MEAL
A warm, nutritious meal delivered right to your kitchen can be a blessing on an otherwise bad day. Meals on Wheels provides that service and it does it using a fleet of volunteers and dedicated public servants who have community in their hearts and minds.
“We do it because we enjoy it,” say our volunteers, many of whom have been volunteering as drivers or servers for over 25 years. “It’s giving back to the community, and the people we help are so openly thankful for what we do.”
Meals on Wheels serves mostly senior citizens, but can also be used by younger people who may be dealing with injuries or other issues that prevent them from either cooking for themselves or leaving home to purchase groceries.
