This project contributes directly to the National Research Priority, promoting and maintaining good health: ageing well, ageing productively, through developing evidence-based knowledge on which to build future volunteer business models. With the rapid ageing of the Australian population, it is imperative that volunteer-based organisations, such as Meals on Wheels, innovate to continue to deliver essential community services in a sustainable and cost-effective way. Meals on Wheels is integral within community care for frail, older people and those with disabilities, keeping people in their own homes and out of institutional care. Using national and international examples, the research has the potential to be adopted by the broad community services sector in Australia.

该项目直接有助于国家研究优先事项，促进和保持良好的健康：老龄化，老龄化的生产力，通过开发基于证据的知识，建立未来的志愿者业务模式。随着澳大利亚人口的迅速老龄化，以志愿者为基础的组织，如Meals on Wheels，必须创新，以可持续和具有成本效益的方式继续提供基本的社区服务。“车轮上的饭菜”是社区照顾体弱、老年人和残疾人的一个组成部分，使人们留在自己家里，不受机构照顾。利用国家和国际的例子，研究有可能被澳大利亚广泛的社区服务部门采用。
