Bellyful Nelson provides meals for families with newborn babies and families with young children who are struggling with illness.
Nationwide
Bellyful Nelson is a branch of a nationwide not-for-profit charity. We provide practical support, encouragement and friendship to families with new babies, during what can be a very lonely and difficult time. We are encouraging communities to get together and support each other - and for families to not be afraid to ask for help!
Bellyful Nelson opened in July 2018.
Bellyful cooks and delivers meals to families with babies and young children who need extra support.
Bellyful has been supporting families in New Zealand for 10 years. We provide meals in 24 communities throughout NZ, thanks to the help of over 680 volunteers. In the last year we have delivered 26,000 meals to 4,600 families. We receive referrals from health professionals such as social workers, Plunket nurses and midwives, as well as family and friends. You can even refer yourself - it takes a lot of courage to ask for help.
Funds are used to purchase ingredients to cook the meals, and for general running of the branch.
