Surrey-North Delta Meals on Wheels is a volunteer community service that provides nutritious meals Monday to Friday to anyone who, by reason of age, physical or mental handicap or illness, cannot prepare adequate meals for themselves. Surrey/North Delta Meals on Wheels has been serving the community since 1970. Over 100 people – seniors, disabled, homebound and health-compromised individuals, and people recuperating from surgeries – rely on Meals on Wheels to deliver fresh meals each weekday. Last year our volunteer drivers delivered over 35,000 meals and bagged lunches to our clients!  In addition to providing a fresh nutritious meal, our volunteers also offer the comfort and reassurance of a daily informal visit and check-in on the safety and well-being of all our meal recipients. 

Many of the residents in our catchments who require our service cannot afford our meals and are in need of help from the community. Most of these vulnerable residents are living on pensions, disability and other low incomes and are having to choose whether to put a roof over their head or food in their stomachs due to inflation and high rental costs.
