Finding a low cost, healthy meal can be hard. But we try to make it a little easier with our Low Cost and Free Meals Directory.
This guide has been made with our neighbours, Shellharbour City Council and Kiama Municipal Council, and Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District.
Low cost and free meals during the COVID-19 pandemic
Food Fairness Illawarra is updating the Low Cost and Free Meals Directory every two weeks to reflect changes due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
