MORE THAN JUST A MEAL
Nepean Food Services is not just about delivering nutritious meals and giving you access to a wide range of quality social services...
We welcome you into a friendly and caring community filled with dedicated staff and volunteers, and provide you with the opportunity to meet people who share an interest in maintaining an independent and social lifestyle.
Approximately 85% of our members are older people who wish to remain independent, while receiving assistance with day-to-day activities, such as getting to the shops, planning nutritious meals, and attending social events.
The remainder are people living with a disability, often seeking independence and flexibility in what they eat.
Nepean Food Services is a registered NDIS service provider and is continually expanding its services to offer programs through this scheme.
HIGHEST STANDARD OF FOOD SAFETY
Scores on Doors is a hygiene rating program that enables you to make an informed choice about where to eat or shop for food.
