    Hi folks, there is a gentleman I know - lives alone and in need of some good home cooked dinners..

    Does anyone know who does Meals on Wheels or what ever for delivery up around the Sunday's Well area?

    TIA

    I don't believe meals on wheels are delivering "home cooked" meals at the moment. I know Douglas Meals on Wheels are delivering SuperValu ready meals at the moment. I guess they are not in a position to cook their own dur to Covid. Still a great service though. Maybe other areas are different though...don't know about Sundays Well area.

    Came across this though:

    Some meals on wheels are still running, I deliver for one in county cork and they have never been busier so it’s worth a call 100%

    fair play to you..

    I am sure what ever they offer is better than what he makes for himself.. bread and ham seems to be his dinner at the moment
