Meals on Wheels
Volunteer MOW Drivers are urgently required within the area defined below:
Tawa in the Sth to Pukerua Bay in the Nth
Titahi Bay in the West to Judgeford in the East
All areas of Porirua
We deliver meals subsidised by CCDHB to a wide sector of the community including the elderly, isolated and the health compromised.
We welcome drivers willing to give just a couple of hours a month, fortnight or week - the choice is the individuals as to how much they can give this worthwhile service.
We start at 11am and deliver meals daily Monday-Friday.
We do not deliver weekends or statutory/public holidays.
Drivers are required to have a full driver's license and a vehicle that is both Registered and Warranted.
If this sounds like you we would love to hear from you. Most drivers state they get just as much out of this service as those receiving it.
Please contact: (04) 9186014, please leave a message if unattended
or email:mow_ccdhb@spotless.co.nz
