The Les MacDonald International Learning Scholarship is an annual professional development opportunity designed for Service Managers (or equivalent) or Board/Committee Members from Meals on Wheels NSW member organisations.
The scholarship allows one recipient per year to undertake a two-week overseas observational visit to learn from global best practices in the aged care and meal delivery sectors. The aim is to bring back innovative ideas and strategies to improve Meals on Wheels services in NSW.
