Save the Meals on Wheels service

We the undersigned note that the Conservative Council intends to stop: · Delivery of hot meals and puddings at lunchtimes across Bolton; · Delivery of meals at lunchtime to 3 lunch clubs. Meals on Wheels gives older people living in their own homes a hot, nutritious meal, safety and wellbeing checks, social interaction, and helps prevent hospital admissions. Under-investment puts this group at risk and places unnecessary pressure on the NHS – quite simply, it’s a false economy. We Call on Bolton Council to scrap the proposal now.
