Morehead Meals

At Morehead Meals we offer event catering and weekly freshly cooked frozen meals. Our food is affordable, ethical, healthy and is part of a multi-levelled social enterprise. All profits from Morehead Meals go back into preparing meals to feed people facing homelessness at Althea’s Community Hub. By purchasing meals from us you are directly contributing to a healthier, resilient and more connected community as we connect with Townsville’s most vulnerable people.

Weekly Freshly Cooked Frozen Meals

Each week our chef prepares freshly cooked meals in our commercial kitchen. These meals are then frozen in single serve containers for your convenience. The menu changes weekly and it lists all of the ingredients in case of allergies. Every week the new menu is posted on Morehead Meals Facebook page. We can also email you the new menu each week, or you can pick up a printed menu when collecting your meals.

If you hold a concession card, meals are $8 each, or 5 for $35. If you don’t have a concession card then meals are $9 each, or 5 for $40. You can collect your meals at the end of each week from either our office in Fleming Street, or Althea’s Community Hub in South Townsville. Meals can also be delivered at an additional cost to most areas.
