Register to receive Meals on Wheels

Anyone can register a client to start receiving Meals on Wheels including family members, friends, a Hospital, GP, Rehab Facility, Community Nurse, Dietitian, Law Enforcement Agency, etc. You can even register yourself. It is suggested that if you are eligible for a funding program such as a Home Care Package or Commonwealth Home Support Program, that you ask them about including meals as part of your nominated services before you contact us.

If you are unsure whether you are eligible for government-subsidised funding towards your meals, you can contact My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 and ask them for a referral code to Meals on Wheels.

Please note, if you are an NDIS client you will need to contact us by phone (unless you are self-managed or plan-managed).

To start receiving Meals on Wheels please complete the following three forms:

  • Client Registration Form
  • Online Menu Selection
  • Your Rights

Or call us on 1800 696 325. We are available to answer your questions between 8:30am and 4:30pm, Monday to Friday. If calling a local Meals on Wheels service direct, please take into consideration that kitchens and administrative staff start early in the morning and therefore by approximately 1:00pm most centres will have signed off for the day.

NB we do not service the Burnie, Launceston or the West Coast area, please contact Red Cross Meals on Wheels If you live in these areas.
