ON WEDNESDAY, August 28 Meals on Wheels across Australia celebrated and thanked their volunteers for the amazing job they do. Coolum Beach Meals on Wheels President Sue Green said it was important to recognise their volunteers on this day.
“National Meals on Wheels Day recognises the outstanding contribution of our wonderful volunteers, who ensure older Australians remain nourished and safe at home every day,” Sue said.
“Meals on Wheels has been part of the Coolum Community for over 40 years, and we now deliver over 600 meals each week to those who otherwise would not be able to get the meals they need.”
“Our clients tell us that it is not only the meals they appreciate, but the friendly smile and chat that the volunteers bring to make their day better.”
As part of the celebration, chef Troy Brien and the kitchen team baked delicious cupcakes which were delivered to all clients who received a meal on Wednesday, August 28 August.
