25.01.2022 PRINCE OF WALES We are so grateful to the community supporting our frontline medical staff at Prince of Wales!!!! We know that you've been helping all the people in your local area understand, protect themselves from and recover from covid-19.... Thank you to Michael from Baccomatto Osteria Randwick who had only recently made the big investment in opening up shop, but ALREADY has a reputation for being a friendly, welcoming hospitality hot spot in the heart of Randwick. And was covid-food-preparation trained and ready to supply with community donated funds. Your HUNDRED meals were so gratefully accepted, by the hard working medics at Prince of Wales Hospital. Thank you especially to our very GENEROUS DONORS for making this happen!! We have a surprise for you (there's sneak peek in the photos ;)! With love and thanks, Jimmy, Joely, Lizzie, Stevie, Kirsty and Emma. gf.me/u/xu85pz

21.01.2022 "We are scared. We can can see it in our colleagues faces. We don't know when this will be over. But we are doing our very best to keep you safe and comfortable. It is what we do. With our whole hearts.... Please do something for us. Stay home. Call your loved ones on the phone. But don't visit them. We healthcare workers are isolating from our families, so we don't infect them. I want to be able to kiss my kids again. And hug my Mom. I can do that sooner if you wash your hands and just stay home for us." - A nurse from USA This kind of captures why we want to help these brave frontline workers. We were able to partner with a local covid-certified café to provide these meals to the brave, selfless people working in Mona Vale Critical Care Centre's covid ward today. Thank you The Tramshed Cafe, Narrabeen Lake for all of the care you took putting these care packages together, thank you to NSW Health who allowed us to share these photos and thank you to all the donors who have made this possible. One of our lovely founders @Stevie Hooper was interviewed during this drop off today, by A Current Affair. Check it out tomorrow, Tuesday 21st April, on channel 9 at 7pm! #feedourheroes #FeedOurMedics #covid19 #australia #nswhealth #wearehereforyou #ED #firstresponders #thankyou #channel9

16.01.2022 Thank you Galerie Cafe at 66 Pacific Hwy, St Leonards for the nutritious variety of meals you prepared today for our hospital heroes at RNSH. Jay and Alex from Galerie Café only opened their shop in December. So they must have taken on big responsibilities with rent, fit out and staff. With very few customers since the pandemic, they, like many other café and restaurant owners, must be struggling to survive financially. They took the time to carefully prepare a menu, design s...igns and share their covid food prep certifications with us, to become our food partner. If you live nearby, go and order some takeaway. A customer told us that they also have *the best* coffee. Much love and thanks, Galerie Café. Thanks for helping to Feed Our Medics. #RNSH #LowerNorthShore #NorthShoreBusiness #NorthShoreMums #SupportLocal #Hospitals #Hospitality #supportsmallbusiness

15.01.2022 Thank you to all of you who have donated to make this possible! 410 meals delivered in 3 weeks. We're looking for a corporate sponsor to put on that 'thank you' note. * Ask your employer if they can redirect some of their social events funding this financial year to help Feed Our Medics. ... * 100% of funding goes to supporting hospitality businesses to support frontline healthcare workers, with meals and an uplifting note. Thank you! [email protected] #Philanthropy #CSR #BusinessesDoingGood #BCorp #viralkindness #covid19 #NSW #Australia #FeedOurMedics #Community

14.01.2022 Thank you to the wonderful staff at Mona Vale Critical Care Centre. We have been able to deliver 60 meals in the last week to the Hospital in the Home team and the Covid Department to lift the spirits of these frontliners who are caring for our most vulnerable. The Tramshed Cafe, Narrabeen Lake went out of their way to create these signs and prepare for a tv crew to film in their kitchen at a safe social distance, to deliver these nutritious meals to our hospital heroes. Thanks to all of you in the community who made this possible by donating here https://au.gofundme.com/f/feed-our-medics-australia <3

13.01.2022 There's nothing we love more than being able to deliver food on behalf of businesses who are keeping the economy going. We pay 100% of their money to small business + deliver that food to the brave people taking risks on the frontline of coronavirus. Thank you, @Malwarebytes. We're delivering some food <3 to our heroes next week, thanks to YOU!

12.01.2022 We're so proud to have made our first delivery to Nepean Hospital yesterday, thanks to the incredible work of @EmmaHusarMP. Thank you to the amazing Penrith community who generously donated and have helped us support a local business, @Fibonacci Coffee as well as bring some sunshine to the lives of the frontline healthcare workers. We are delivering LUNCH to Nepean Hospital on Monday 20th April and would like your support to continue helping them. Please SHARE or donate here gf.me/u/xvpxx5

12.01.2022 Nepean Hospital Update! Today we were able to deliver 30 meals to Nepean Hospital to the Covid testing team to lift the spirits of these frontliners right at the coal face of this disease. Cafe at Lewers put together a delicious spread of pasta and salads for lunch. https://www.facebook.com/Cafe-at-Lewers-1417712778503265/ They have completed their infection control training so were the perfect partners to supply nutritious and scrumptious food to our hypervigilant hospital ...heroes. We have been so fortunate to have ex-Federal MP @EmmaHusarMP driving 'Feed Our Medics' in Penrith!! "As the former local Member I know how vital Nepean Hospital is to our community. The healthcare staff work incredibly hard under enormous pressure each and every day, and I know that they are extending themselves even further throughout this pandemic. I wanted to play my part and use my knowledge, network and profile to ensure our front line healthcare workers felt supported and appreciated as the heroes that they are." ...and she sure has done that, raising enough for NINETY meals within a week with the wonderful generosity of the Penrith community. Thanks to all of you in the community who made this possible by donating here https://www.gofundme.com/f/feed-our-medics-nepean-hospital Penrith, we can see that you really value your healthcare workers and want to help each other.

11.01.2022 Thanks to channel 9 news and Elizabeth Bryan for sharing our story. We are grateful to our donors who have 100% made this possible, and humbled by the hospitality industry and frontline healthcare workers braving additional risk through this scary time. #localsservinglocals

11.01.2022 Dear Frontline Healthcare Workers, Thank you for risking your lives every day to help us. We have tears of gratitude at your bravery while listening to the One World Concert.... When you walk into work every day, please know that we are all standing behind you and will help you any way we can. Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87-ZFjLfBAQ #Covid19 #oneworld together athome #YouTubeConcert #Coronavirus #Australia #ClapForHealthcareWorkers #Thankyou #Heroes

11.01.2022 Thanks Zomato for featuring us last week. We are hard at work delivering food and helping small businesses and grateful for your support. #CovidKindness #Sydney #NSW #supportsmall

10.01.2022 Thanks to all of our donors, and the amazing bliss bowls for making THIS possible today. 50 more meals to our brave frontliners. It just shows what we can all do if we work together. #feedthefrontline #covidheroes #donations #viralkindness #thankyou from #isolation

10.01.2022 G R A T E F U L You all know that medics have been working extra hard in the last month to test additional people, to carefully track the presence of covid-19. What you may not know is that emergency services have had an increase in their work load and mental load because of the mental health impact that covid has caused. ... It's expected that in Australia, more people will take their own lives because of Covid-19 than the illness takes. Data modelling shows 750 additional people this year will take their own lives due to the financial, emotional and physical stress caused by covid, and devastatingly far too many of those have already occurred. Suicide is preventable through personal connections and the teams at Gotcha4Life, Lifeline, Black Dog Institute and Beyond Blue. Please reach out to these organisations if you are in a dark place - help is there for you. We are all in this storm together. In the coming months, we will also be supporting some emergency services legends, who've helped out covid patients and been first responders for the most difficult line of response when someone phones 000. These heroes walk among us. Today, support from our generous community, has enabled us to hire Galerie Cafe to prepare with care, 50 nutritious meals for paramedics and emergency services staff at NBH. Thanks Alex and Jay, we know how tough it is to own a small business right now, even when you make the most delicious food and coffee! And to the legends who front up to work, risking themselves and their own physical and mental health for everyone in our community - t h a n k y o u . You are everything we love about this world.

10.01.2022 This is a very raw insight into the lives of people with, and on the frontline of, covid-19. Please send our frontliners in 6 current hospitals a care package by donating: https://www.gofundme.com/f/feed-our-medics-australia-wide We are doing everything we can to support these amazing heroes.... https://www.abc.net.au//coronavirus-paramedics-do/12139676 See more

North Shore update: our first meal delivery is on Thursday and supported by 2pots catering who are delivering 50 meals to feed our medics at RNS.... #feedourmedics #helpourhealthcareworkers #covidkindness #covid19

08.01.2022 Speaking to some nurses today I heard some common themes. "There are other people worse off than me." "What about the people in other departments?"... "What about the people who are cleaning up between patients, who are putting themselves at risk too?" THESE NURSES ARE SO SELFLESS !!!! Take a look at the occupational risk they are taking and the reward they get for it. PLEASE donate below so we can continue supporting these VERY HUMBLE heroes. We send an uplifting note with every nourishing meal we send, to show how grateful we are for the risks they are taking, and the mental load they are carrying to keep us all safe.

07.01.2022 We have done SO well to flatten the curve, however NSW is still at high risk of transmission of this virus, particularly with school going back in 3 weeks and isolation fatigue.
