Bellyful Dunedin is a branch of a nationwide not-for-profit charity. We provide practical support, encouragement and friendship to mums 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 mums to not be afraid to ask for help!

Bellyful Dunedin has been operating since July 2012 and in that time has delivered well over 1000 meals to hundreds of local families - all achieved by volunteer effort put into fundraising, cooking & delivering of meals.
