Meals on Wheels London thanks the support of our community through the ongoing pandemic. We wanted to reach out with this statement regarding a change in our eligibility criteria. The new criteria are: Meals on Wheels London provides service to adults 18+ with disabilities, seniors 55+ and/or anyone of any age whose personal care plan needs support. These needs can be short term (caregiver relief, recuperation, seasonal) or long-term assistance. No long-term contract is requi...red. The minimum order on registration is either five daily meals or one package of seven frozen meals. We have made this change as it reflects work that we were already doing, and our organization believes that no matter your age we are here to serve you in your personal care journey. If at any time you have questions, we ask that you reach out us. 519-660-1430 [email protected] Thank you!
