Aged Care Meals

The aim of the Aged Care Meals is to provide you with prepared healthy and nutritious food delivered to your home.

While good nutrition matters at any age, it becomes more important in your later years. Eating a balanced diet and regular meals is an important part of both your physical and emotional wellness.

We understand that it’s not just about meal delivery, it’s about a nutrition partnership based on your needs, likes and preferences.

We cooperate with Lite n’ Easy meal delivery services. Rich in nutrients, their menus are created to offer balanced nutritious meals plan for people aged 65 and over.
