An Assistant Chair helps the Chair where needed and steps in when the they are ill, unavailable or on holidays.

The Chair ensures the smooth running of the branch by promoting good teamwork and seeking feedback from committee and volunteers. They lead by example with a positive attitude to achieve positive outcomes and help build a happy and helpful atmosphere. They build communication across the branch and ensure that volunteers and other team members understand why we have policies and procedures, and embrace change and help the branch volunteers understand the need to adapt.

Desirable qualities include the ability to lead, particularly in meetings, good interpersonal and communication skills, the ability to interact with volunteers from diverse backgrounds and the ability to sensitively deal with confidential information.

All volunteers are required to complete and provide:

  • Volunteer Application Form
  • ACIC Police Check Informed Consent Form (free of charge) (or, if a volunteer already holds a current Police Check of any kind performed within the last 2 years, please provide a copy)

About Us

At Meals on Wheels we assist many people in the community to live independently in their own homes by providing a high quality meal delivery service. Our customers include those who cannot cook or shop for themselves with ease, such as older people, people with a disability, carers or those recovering from an illness or injury. Meals are delivered hot from Monday to Friday, or frozen meals are available, allowing customers more dining flexibility, especially for weekends or public holidays.

Great food. Great people.
