Ancaster Community Services Meals on Wheels

Delivers hot meals to the homes of elderly, convalescent, disabled persons, or any person in need of a meal and unable to provide for themselves. Available on both a short-term and long-term basis to eligible clients.

Meal delivery is prepared by Set the Table Kitchen & Co. Food Delivery Service and delivered by volunteers.  

Specialty diets (celiac, diabetic) may be accommodated upon request. A regular Meals on Wheels delivery consists of:

  • Full course meal of meat, vegetable(s), and a starch (pasta, potatoes or rice)
