HomePlate Project

The HomePlate Project

A national project by the Maggie Beer Foundation | Funded by the Wicking Trust
Malnutrition affects up to 17% of older Australians living at home, and up to 66% are at risk – often silently and invisibly. But ageing doesn’t have to mean losing the joy of food.

The HomePlate Project puts older people at the centre of the conversation. Through data collection and collaboration, we’re working to reframe food as a source of health, pleasure, dignity and independence – at every age. Running until 2027, this project will uncover real stories, practical solutions, and new ways to support eating well at home.

We’d love to hear from you! We’re inviting you to join our mailing list below.
