Wellbeing Checks with Meals

About the service

The Wellbeing Checks with Meals service has been specifically created for older people living in Wiltshire and Swindon, providing much more than a hot meal. Every lunchtime delivery includes a reassuring wellbeing check, carried out by our own experienced and dedicated Age UK Wiltshire staff.

Your meal will be delivered directly to your door by our caring, trained staff, who will become a familiar and trusted face. As part of the service, they will take time to check that you are safe and well and can offer help to plate the meal if required, providing reassurance not only to customers, but also to their families and loved ones that someone is checking in regularly.

Meals are freshly prepared in Wiltshire by an external team of chefs, dietitians and nutritionists, using sustainably sourced ingredients and supporting British food and farming. A wide and varied menu has been carefully designed to meet the nutritional needs and preferences of older people.

With over 100 standard menu choices available, we can also accommodate a range of specific dietary requirements, including low sugar, gluten-free and texture-modified meals.

The Wellbeing Checks with Meals service is available for lunchtime deliveries to your home on every day of the year except Christmas day, to find out the cost for a main course and dessert in your area, please email: wellbeingcheckswithmeals@ageukwiltshire.org.uk.
