Balbriggan Meals on Wheels gets new minibus!

Thanks to sponsorship received from Progressive Credit Union, Balbriggan and the H.S.E., along with money raised through a Monster Raffle and other fundraising ventures in 2019, we are thrilled to have been able to purchase our new vehicle. Whilst the project was delayed considerably due to the constraints of Covid-19 over the past year, we are finally on the road. We would like to express our thanks to Progressive Credit Union in particular Brian Howard, the H.S.E. and all those who contributed in any way to raising funds for our minibus.

Balbriggan Meals on Wheels currently provides more than 80 meals per day, with meals delivered to the most vulnerable people in our community. We look forward to using our new bus to deliver meals to our clients as well as transporting our clients to and from our Dinner Club as soon as it is safe for us to resume this service. We are also announcing that our fundraising appeal has been launched. As everyone is aware, the present circumstances this year have once again meant that we have been unable to host any fundraising events. We are, therefore, at this time launching a fundraising appeal to assist us in continuing our work, cooking and delivering meals in the wider Balbriggan area. Donations may be made directly to our base in Hampton Street or through the donate button on our Facebook page. Any assistance from individuals or local organisations would be most gratefully accepted at this time. Contact us at Balbriggan Meals on Wheels, 14 Hampton Street, Balbriggan, Co.
