Last week we celebrated 45 years of service at our Redbank Meals on Wheels Service! 🎉

It was a wonderful chance to reflect on the incredible contribution the service has made to the Redbank community over the past four and a half decades and to recognise our dedicated volunteers and staff.

A special thank you to Kelli, our Redbank Service Coordinator, for organising the celebration and helping make it such a memorable occasion.

Please enjoy some photos from the day! 📸💙💛

🚗❤️ Volunteers Needed – Help Deliver More Than Just a Meal ❤️🚗

As our Meals on Wheels services continue to grow, we are looking for additional volunteers to support our existing team and help cover shifts when regular volunteers are unavailable.

If you have a couple of hours to spare Monday to Friday, we'd love to hear from you.

Volunteering is flexible. Whether you can help once a week, once a fortnight, or even once a month, every contribution makes a difference and helps us continue supporting our community.

No experience is necessary. New volunteers can come along with one of our experienced team members, learn the ropes, and see firsthand the difference a friendly face and a delivered meal can make in someone's day.

Volunteering with Meals on Wheels is a rewarding way to give back to your local community, meet new people, and support older Australians to remain independent in their own homes.

Fresh look, fantastic partnership! 🎨👏

A huge thank you to The Industry School - Ipswich
and Higgins Coatings
for transforming our downstairs office space. A couple of days without an office was a small price to pay for such a fantastic result!

Students from The Industry School gained valuable hands-on experience while working alongside the professional team from Higgins Coatings, resulting in a brighter, refreshed space for our team.

Higgins Coatings generously donated their time, expertise, equipment and paint, making this incredible project possible. In fact, the only cost to our organisation was providing lunch for the team.

Thank you to everyone involved for your hard work, generosity and support. We love the result! 💙

No Wait List, no contracts.
Nutritious meals delivered to your door by our wonderful volunteers, rain, hail or shine

Some moments just lift a day.

For Judy, it’s a Meals on Wheels visit; a knock at the door, a familiar smile, and a conversation that brings warmth into the room.

A Juicy Roast Chook she knows and loves, and something even more important alongside it; the comfort of being seen, checked in on, and cared for.

And for her family, that same reassurance carries weight. Knowing she’s not just receiving a meal, but a moment of connection they can trust.

It’s simple. It’s human. It’s care in motion. And that’s what makes it Seasoned with Care.
