MEALS ON WHEELS

Coolum Beach Meals on Wheels have been providing meals to the local community since 1983. The first delivery consisted of eight meals, with this number quickly growing to approximately twenty-five meals delivered three times a week. The meals were delivered to Coolum Beach, Yaroomba, Bli Bli and Valdora. In the beginning the meals were prepared and cooked by volunteers at the Coolum Beach Uniting Church using favourite home recipes. When a more permanent arrangement was needed the founders successfully applied for funding and held local fundraising events which enabled the building of Coolum Beach Meals on Wheels in Santa Monica Ave where we are today... Today our service area includes Twin Waters and Pacific Paradise in the south to Marcus Beach in the north, west to Valdora and everywhere in-between. We have a dedicated team of volunteers and staff who provide 18 000 meals annually all cooked in our own commercial kitchen.
