Ready meals

If you find it difficult to prepare a hot main meal for yourself, and you are able to use an oven or microwave you could look at buying ready meals.

Ready meals can be bought from any supermarket, or you could consider buying frozen ready meals that are delivered free to your home. You would need a small freezer to store these.

Ready meals cater for people with all dietary needs these can include Diabetic, Low Fat, Reducing Diet, Moderate Salt Diet, Gluten Free, Vegetarian, and Egg Free Meals.

One way to buy ready meals would be to use Age UK Stockport's Easy Shop service. Working closely with local supermarkets this service provides regular, reliable home shopping for people who are unable to access shops personally. Costs will vary depending on where you buy your meals.
