Mornington Peninsula Shire has reversed its planned aged-care exit, confirming Meals on Wheels, community transport and group social support will continue beyond June 2027.

Mornington Peninsula Shire will stop delivering Commonwealth-funded aged care services from 2027, with Meals on Wheels, Dial a Bus and social support services to move to specialist providers. The change comes in one of Victoria’s older communities, leaving residents and families waiting for key details on future providers and costs.

Frankston City Council will transition to a shared Community Care delivery model from June 2026, maintaining essential programs like Meals on Wheels while ensuring long-term financial sustainability.
