what is the cost of a meal?
Meals on Wheels clients pay a fee for each meal delivered to their door. Every effort is made to keep meals as affordable as possible, particularly as many recipients are on a pension. Cost of meals and menu choices vary from service to service and depend upon conditions and factors prevailing to the particular area of the local service. Variations in the cost of meat, fruit and vegetables all affect the meal price therefore each local Meals on Wheels service sets the cost for its meals. It is through a combination of volunteers, Government assistance, clients and the wonderful community support which meets the cost of producing the meals.
