Food Safety Tips

We would like to make a few suggestions to ensure that you enjoy your meal and avoid any danger of food poisoning:

Your meal is best eaten as soon as it is delivered.
If this is not possible, or not convenient, you can keep it warm for up to 1 hour in a pre-headed oven on a low heat - gas mark 1/4, electric 100F / 50C.
A cold sweet may be stored in a refrigerator but, must be eaten within a few hours.
Never reheat a meal once it has been allowed to cool down.

How can I order a meal?

Meals are normally provided 5 days a week (Monday to Friday), however, you may not want a meal every day and you may wish to vary the days you have your meal delivered - the choice is yours!

To order your meal, please contact the Meals on Wheels Team on (01685) 723466 - one week in advance if possible.
