Bellyful cooks and deliver meals to whānau, with babies or young children, who need support. A new baby is exciting, but can also be exhausting, stressful and isolating. This can be compounded by the illness of the baby or other whānau, and if families lack support networks to help them through challenging times. Bellyful provides simple practical support in the form of nutritious cooked meals, delivered by a volunteer to the house. Bellyful wants to encourage whānau to accept help and support from their local community, building stronger communities in the process. Belllyful's service is provided with love by over 680 active volunteers and a few staff members.
