Her prior experience with Queensland Health as a home care worker and coordinator for the Aged Care sector at Caboolture is invaluable in her understanding of our clients’ needs.

Meals on Wheels Moreton Bay Region Inc. Board of Directors

Bev Brandis – Secretary of The Board

I am currently Secretary of the Board & have been since the 2025 AGM. I have been a member of the Board since November 2021.

I have lived on Bribie Island with my husband since our retirement in early 2013. We have three children and eight grandchildren. When my children were secure in their school routines, I returned to Primary School teaching in the Gladstone area. In the year 2000, I took on my first role as Primary School Principal. After twenty – five rewarding years, I retired in 2013.

My association with Meals on Wheels began in November 2013 when I joined as kitchen volunteer in the Meals on Wheels Bribie Island kitchen. I still volunteer in the kitchen two days a week. I took on role of Treasurer in 2014 on the Bribie Island Committee & remained in that position until the amalgamation of branches into Meals on Moreton Bay Region Inc. in 2021. I took the role of Treasurer in November 2021 after the resignation of the Secretary/Treasurer. I remain a member of the Board and, as mentioned previously, am currently Secretary.

My previous experiences and learnings as an education leader, particularly managing budgets, strategic planning & managing people, stand me in good stead to be an active, productive member of the Board. My goal for the future is to contribute positively & productively to the implementation of Aged Care Reform changes, HUB kitchen planning & the continuing improvement of the organization.
