Meals on Wheels: New interactive map of services

The University of Bristol’s School for Policy Studies is excited to share a groundbreaking online tool designed to help connect individuals, across the UK, with vital Meals on Wheels services.

This resource is free to use and was developed after extensive research and consultation with those who use, recommend or provide Meals on Wheels services.

Our Meals on Wheels UK map is designed to make finding the right service, in the right location, simpler and more efficient for all. We’ve created the map with several audiences in mind, and we encourage you to explore how it can best support your needs:

  • Adults with care and support needs: Find providers who can deliver meals to your home.
  • Carers: Find Meals on Wheels services for the adults you care for.
  • Healthcare, social care, and social work professionals: Easily find Meals on Wheels services to refer adults to.
  • Meals on Wheels providers: Connect with other providers, exchange good practices, and build a stronger network.
  • Commissioners and policymakers: Identify gaps in provision and use the map to inform decision-making for service enhancements.
  • Researchers: Connect with providers and collaborate on research or policy projects.

You can explore the map in our unique Meals on Wheels UK website: https://mealsonwheelsuk.org/.

The work was led by Professor Angeliki Papadaki, Professor of Public Health Nutrition at the University of Bristol. The project is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, Impact Accelerator Account.
