Meals on Wheels Victoria is the peak state body, representing the community of grassroots services across Victoria dedicated to the wellbeing, connection and independence of our most vulnerable.
We play an important role in developing and sharing best practice between the member services, along with promoting and raising awareness of Meals on Wheels and the customers we serve.
We offer a single point of contact between Meals on Wheels services, policy-makers, funders, regulators and other key stakeholders.
Meals on Wheels Victoria is funded by member subscriptions ($100 per year) and a yearly contribution from the federal government of approximately $5000 a year. For 2021/22 financial year we have secured funding for a State Manager. However all day to day operational functions are performed by a dedicated team of volunteers. Our central number is attended Monday to Friday (including public holidays) for people wanting to know more about the service, or in some cases having trouble contacting their local provider.
