Portarlington Social Services / Meals on Wheels has continued to serve the community through the Covid-19 pandemic delivering thousands of meals in the face of lockdowns and restrictions.
This service is now 49 years on the go. Last year, 2020 there was up to 10,000 meals cooked & delivered. The organisers extended their thanks to all who made this possible in a note to the community. This would not have been possible without our amazing kitchen staff, our 80 plus volunteer drivers, who bring the dinners to our meal recipients three days a week. To everyone who has donated in any way to keep our service going, we thank you most sincerely.
