A CATERING service, based in Bridport, is backing a new campaign by celebrity chefs the Hairy Bikers to rescue Meals on Wheels.
Local Food Links, a community-owned social enterprise, developed a new catering service during 2010 to provide older people with freshly-prepared meals made from local and seasonal ingredients.
It provides meals to lunch clubs, schools and nurseries and, since February 2011, has been offering a meals on wheels service with Agincare Cuisine.
The meals are prepared daily at Local Food Link’s Bridport Kitchen.
The service was created partly thanks to a £288,000 grant from Local Food, a £57.5million funding programme supported by the Big Lottery Fund.
