We value our volunteers and provide training sessions throughout the year, relevant to our organisation. The contribution of our volunteers is recognised in National Volunteer Week  and at other events throughout the year, such as our annual Volunteer's Day. It is not only our clients whose lives are enhanced by Meals on Wheels; as a volunteer, you enrich your own life, form social connections, and gain a sense of satisfaction from helping others in your community.
