Narrandera Meals On Wheels

It is volunteer week and we would like to say Thank You to all of our volunteers who deliver not only a meal to our clients but also a friendly smile and a quick check to make sure they are OK.

Our volunteers deliver meals not only locally but also travel large distances delivering meals to other services.

This National Volunteer Week, we’re celebrating the 2026 theme — Your Year to Volunteer 💙

There’s never been a better time to get involved. At Meals on Wheels Australia, our volunteers do so much more than deliver meals — they bring connection, kindness and support to older Australians every day.

Whether it’s a friendly chat at the door or helping someone stay independent in their own home, every moment matters.

To our incredible volunteers: thank you for everything you give. And to those thinking about getting involved — perhaps it is your year to volunteer.

Narrandera Meals On Wheels would love your help, there are lots of great benefits to volunteering.

We need people to deliver meals for both our local and out of town runs (our vehicle is used for out of town runs).

Your commitment could be once a week or once every few months. Every little bit of help is appreciated.

Millions of people volunteer their time in NSW which benefits communities, people in need, not-for-profit and community organisations as well as the volunteers themselves.

The Aged Care reforms introduced on 1 November 2025 are significant and complex.

As the reforms head toward the 6-month mark, COTA Australia and the Older Persons Advocacy Network (OPAN) are hosting 3 webinar sessions to provide another opportunity to have your questions answered. We've heard from many older people and their families about the impacts they've experienced since the reforms commenced, and the webinars will address a number of these topics.

WEBINAR: SESSION 1 Friday 8 May 2026 2.00pm - 4.00pm AEST (sold out).
WEBINAR: SESSION 2 Monday 1 June 2026 2.00pm - 4.00pm AEST.
WEBINAR: SESSION 3 Tuesday 30 June 2026 2.00pm - 4.00pm AEST.

You can register to attend any one of the webinars or all three of the sessions and as part of your registration, you can submit a question on any aged care reform issue that you’d like answered.

We encourage older Australians, their families and other supporters as well as interested community members to attend. These sessions are not designed for aged care providers or professionals.

Every older person has the right to quality aged care - and the right to speak up when they're not getting it.

In this OPAN webinar, our panel of experts will discuss the aged care complaints process. Including what's changed under the new Act, the role of mediation in resolving complaints, what to do if your rights have been breached, and how to seek a review of a decision. We'll also explore the expanded powers of the new Complaints Commissioner and what they mean for older people.
