Coast and Country serving the local community

Coast and Country Community Services (Community Transport) and Young Meals On Wheels have merged to form a stronger organisation that better serves our community.

Under this year’s theme, “Aged Care You Can Count On”, Meals on Wheels is proudly reaffirming its promise to be a trusted, reliable presence in the lives of older Australians, especially as the aged care sector continues to evolve.

Each day in Young, Meals on Wheels volunteers hit the road to deliver freshly prepared meals or frozen meals and check in on customers.

These daily visits offer more than nutrition, they offer reassurance, connection and help people stay living independently in their own homes.

National Meals on Wheels Day 2025 encourages locals to join in and help locals who need it the most.

“Meals on Wheels isn’t just a service, it’s a lifeline,” Chair of Meals on Wheels Australia Paul Sadler said.

“As aged care changes, our promise doesn’t – to show up, nourish and care.

“Meals on Wheels services are run for locals, by locals, powered by the dedication of volunteers who know their communities best."

In Young and Boorowa, Meals on Wheels is calling on the community to get involved, whether by volunteering, donating, or simply spreading the word about the impact of the service.
