Camden Meals on Wheels Inc. 18C Little Street, Camden, New South Wales 2570
About the Business
Welcome to Camden Meals on Wheels Inc., located at 18C Little Street in Camden, Australia. As an establishment focused on food and meal delivery, we are a point of interest for both locals and visitors alike.
One of the things that sets Camden Meals on Wheels apart is our reliance on local volunteers. Since 1970, our dedicated volunteers have played a crucial role in driving our operations. They deliver meals, visit clients, provide local transport, and assist with our regular events. Without their support, our vital service would not have been able to continue so successfully for over five decades.
One of our standout programs is the meal mates program, which has been running since 2013. This program aims to connect our volunteers with clients in a way that fosters friendship and care. It is multi-faceted, helping those who may be socially isolated or simply in need of some company. Through this program, we have found that both the volunteer and the client benefit greatly from the meaningful connections formed.
From our humble beginnings at the Camden Hospital, Camden Meals on Wheels has grown and evolved. We now have our own food preparation and storage facility on Little Street in Camden. Our dedicated team provides a range of healthy and nutritious food options, catering to various dietary requirements. With our diverse menu, we are confident that we have something to appeal to every taste, even the most selective eaters!
At Camden Meals on Wheels, we believe in caring for the community of Camden beyond just providing meals. Many of our clients have referred to us as their extended family. We look after each other, enjoying social gatherings and checking in on one another just to say hello. We understand that our service goes beyond delivering food; it is about creating a sense of belonging and support.
While our subsidised meals and services are primarily aimed at Indigenous Australians and people aged over 65, we welcome anyone to get involved. Our door is always open between the hours of 9am-3pm from Monday to Friday. You can also find us on Facebook for more information and updates.
Camden Meals on Wheels is supported by the Australian Government Department of Social Services. We are proud to be a part of their mission to enhance the well-being and independence of individuals and communities. For more information about the Department of Social Services, please visit their website at www.dss.gov.au.
Our mission at Camden Meals on Wheels is to enable frail older people and younger people with disabilities, as well as their carers, to remain in their own homes and enjoy a level of independence that suits their individual needs. While aged care or other support may be needed in the future, Meals on Wheels provides a way for individuals to stay in the comfort of their familiar home environment for as long as possible.
We are committed to providing appropriate services that recognize the cultural and special needs of our clients. The Commonwealth Home Support Programme ensures that our services reflect the diversity of the population and cater to the unique requirements of each individual.
Thank you for visiting Camden Meals on Wheels Inc. We are here to serve our community and make a positive difference in the lives of those we support.
