Meals on wheels for the elderly are becoming a treat from the past and home helps are once again becoming the charladies of the rich.
We have saved a little more by cutting our meals on wheels for elderly people living in isolated villages.
If this were done, it would enormously relieve the meals on wheels service, which could then go further afield.
Meals on wheels are an excellent service, but it is very limited.
Therefore, it did not seem a really comparable service to the "meals on wheels" which we have been hearing about.
We saw old people living in single rooms and receiving "meals on wheels".
The development of the meals on wheels service has been a boon to old people.
The food subsidy for meals on wheels will be discontinued, leading to a price increase from £1.40 to £2.10 per meal.
