Grant Activity:
Solar Panels installation supports Inverell Meals on Wheels
Purpose:
Inverell Meals on Wheels support people to stay at home for longer by improving access to quality nutrition, decreasing isolation with regular visits, checking on their safety and well–being. We know each client as an individual and can quickly identify any deterioration in their health, resulting in timely intervention before the situation reaches crisis point. Meals on Wheels has been operating in Inverell since 1962, delivering over 26,000 meals in the last 12 months. The demand for services continue to increase, particularly during the COVID–19 pandemic. Inverell Meals on Wheels support clients to delay, or avoid altogether, the need to move into more complex aged care by being kept socially active and connected with their community, so that whole–of–system aged care costs can be kept at a sustainable level as the population ages and the number of people requiring care increases. We provide high quality, age specific nutrition that supports older people to be more independent at home and active in the community thereby enhancing their quality of life and/or preventing or delaying their admission to long–term residential care.
The installation of a solar panel system will decrease our organisations electricity expenses, allowing us to provide Meals on Wheels support services to the community into the future.
