Hot meals are delivered Monday to Friday by volunteers to people who, through sickness, age and/or disability cannot reasonably get a meal for themselves. This service allows people to remain with dignity and independence in their own homes.

Hot meals are delivered to elderly or disabled residents of Bairnsdale, Lakes Entrance and surrounding towns by volunteers to help maintain independence at home. Frozen meals can be arranged for weekends and public holidays where necessary. Short-term assistance is also available.

Who can use the service?

  • Frail, older people.
  • People with disabilities.
  • Carers.
  • People discharged from hospital requiring short term help.
  • Families in need of short term help during critical periods.

Cost

Up to $9.50 per meal.
