Become a Meals on Wheels NSW Member Service
Are you a non-government, not-for-profit organisation that provides a meal service, or are you involved in community development, policy, or advocacy? Then join as a Full Member!
Why Become a Member
Meals on Wheels NSW is the peak body supporting more than 130 independent, locally owned Meals on Wheels organisations across the state. Each member service keeps its own board, staff and local identity. Membership gives you the backing of a 70-year-old network without giving up local ownership.
Funding Transition Support
Meals on Wheels NSW is working through the practical and financial implications of the move to Support at Home, so member services are not navigating the change alone.
Publicity and Media
Leveraging our channels and marketing campaigns, we raise the profile of Meals on Wheels at a state and local level, giving you the legacy of a 70-year-old beloved brand.
Advocacy that Carries Weight
A single service has little influence with government. As part of a statewide network, Meals on Wheels NSW represents member services in policy discussions, including the current transition from the Commonwealth Home Support Programme to Support at Home.
Insurance Built for the Sector
Through Community Underwriting, member services can access not-for-profit insurance designed around the risks community organisations actually face, rather than a generic commercial policy.
Build your Volunteer and Client Base
We refer volunteers and clients to local Meals on Wheels Services through ongoing activity to boost numbers.
Providing Training, Resources, Events and More
Meals on Wheels NSW provide templates, training, and compliance guidance that are current, regularly updated and made available to every member service, saving each Member Service the time and cost of sourcing and/or building them alone.
Network to Call On
Connect with other member services facing the same operational and funding pressures, and reach Meals on Wheels NSW staff directly for support.
