Residents in Dorchester will soon be able to benefit from a new hot meal service - thanks to an expanding company.

St Jude's Catering will be bringing its hot, freshly prepared meals on a china plate right to the doors of residents in need.

St Jude’s Care looks after clients all over Dorset from Portland to Maiden Newton to Charmouth, Wareham, Poole, Bournemouth and Yeovil.

St Jude’s are now delivering freshly prepared hot food to the centre of Dorchester as well as Weymouth and Portland.

Ben Andrews, managing director of St Jude’s Care said “At St Jude’s we offer 'Meals on Wheels' a little differently, and we are delighted to bring our freshly cooked meals to the residents of Dorchester.

"All meals are prepared locally and delivered on a china plate, hot and ready to enjoy.

"Some people enjoy St Jude’s catering every day and some choose to treat themselves once or twice a week. 

"After a spell in hospital some people find it very convenient to have meals prepared and delivered to them during their recovery."

Mrs Ramsden of Weymouth, who has been receiving St Jude’s hot meals since they launched in November 2016, said: “I enjoy receiving my hot meal; they are a good portion size and tastes so good. The drivers are very friendly when they deliver my meal and I enjoy having a chat with them every day."

St Jude’s Catering also provide catering services to social clubs if they have a special gathering. 

The company will even be delivering meals on Christmas Day. A freshly prepared Turkey dinner with all the trimmings will be delivered, plus a cracker and mince pie for £6.60. 

There is also a fish and vegetarian option available too.
