Meals on Wheels UK project

Meals on Wheels UK are launching a new UK-wide report on Meals on Wheels service provision, predicted demand, and unmet need across all 374 local authority districts, and are delighted to invite you to a webinar presenting the findings.

This is the first time that provision and population need for Meals on Wheels have been mapped at a national level. The findings may help inform local service planning and wider system priorities, including prevention, healthy ageing, hospital discharge, and pressures within adult social care systems.

We would be delighted if you could join us for the launch:

📅 Tuesday 19 May 2026
🕐 13:00 – 14:00 (BST)
📍 Online

The webinar will present the national findings and explore how they may support service planning, prevention strategies, and partnership working across local systems, NHS services, community organisations and Meals on Wheels providers.

You may also find our recent policy briefing on Meals on Wheels, outlining its role in supporting recipients and unpaid carers, of interest: https://www.bristol.ac.uk/policybristol/policy-briefings/care-meals-carers/.
