More than just a meal
About us Hertfordshire Independent Living Service (HILS) is a charitable, not-for-profit, social enterprise that operates from four sites across the county, 365 days a year.
We deliver 500,000 meals each year, which is equivalent to our vehicles travelling to the moon and back! Our charitable purpose is to help older and vulnerable people in our community to live happier and healthier lives, whilst remaining independent in their own homes. We support thousands of people across Hertfordshire and ensure that our clients’ wellbeing and safety is prioritised.
Who delivers your meals? Meals are delivered daily between 11:30am and 2pm by our dedicated and caring Community Team delivery drivers who are regularly trained in nutrition, food safety and supporting older people including those living with dementia. Additionally all delivery drivers have police checks and are paid at least the Living Wage.
How do we support our clients at home? We work closely with the Fire & Rescue Service, Police, and Trading Standards, who occasionally come out with our Community Team delivery drivers on their rounds to make sure our clients are safe and secure.
We have a ‘no reply’ procedure in place to ensure that if a client does not answer the door, we follow up to make sure that every client is safe. We also work closely with other organisations, such as Age UK Hertfordshire, Carers in Herts, HertsHelp, and Small Acts of Kindness to ensure our clients are safe and well.
Our Community Team Members carry out welfare checks to ensure each client’s wellbeing needs
are met. We remind our clients to drink plenty of fluids to stay
hydrated throughout the day, and monitor their room temperatures to ensure they
are living in safe conditions, especially in the winter.
