The cost of receiving a two-course meal from Rhondda Cynon Taf’s meals on wheels service is set to rise under new plans.
Bosses say proposals to increase the price for the service are being considered because of rising food and energy costs - on top of financial pressures all councils in Wales face next year.
The council said that the preferred option would increase the two course meal price by 50p to £4.55, which it said is still a “competitive price” in comparison with neighbouring councils and private providers. Under this option staff would continue to check on people’s welfare which could include help with plates if needed.
