Funding for the Service is received through the Home and Community Care Program (HACC), which is administered by the Department of Ageing, Disability and Home Care. A Board of Management that consists of three representatives from Ku-ring-gai Council and three representatives from Ku-ring-gai Old People's Welfare Association (KOPWA) runs the Service.

The Service operates a kitchen at Turramurra and a meal distribution center at Gordon. Our volunteers deliver all meals.
