Ready-to-eat Meal Delivery Providers?
My elderly mother has been getting meals delivered five days a week by the company Mobile Meals. I heard, unofficially, on Friday that this company are no longer able to deliver - effective immediately. I hope I'm wrong. Being Mum's caregiver.... and living 15 km away from her.... I have really appreciated the meal deliveries, particularly because of the wonderful delivery person who would keep an eye on Mum and let me know if something didn't seem right.
So... I'm wondering if anybody can recommend a meal service for the Enner Glynn area. I know I can use frozen meals, but these aren't so easy for my Mum to manage. It is much better if they arrive fresh on a plate and can go straight into the microwave or on to the table.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Best wishes from Todd Valley....
And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...
A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.
The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.
The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'
Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
