West Sussex County Council (CAP) awarded a contract to apetito Limited for the provision of Community Meals on Wheels Services.

The services are predominantly for residents over 55 years of age living in the community of West Sussex, focusing on a balanced nutritional offering to help maintain wellbeing and enable residents to stay in their own homes longer, avoiding hospital admissions through malnutrition or slower healing times.

The food supply element is also made available for the Council's Directly Provided Services (Day Centres) and other establishments such as lunch clubs.

Meals meet the recommended National Association of Care Catering (NACC) standards for community meals.

The contract value is £8,400,000.
