How Zaiqa Box Supports Leicester’s Elderly 💚
At Zaiqa Box, we’ve seen that feeling light up the faces of so many people across Leicester, especially our elderly customers.
🫶 It Started with a Simple Thought
When we began delivering home-cooked meals, we noticed how many elderly people lived alone — some still cooking for themselves, some skipping meals altogether.
That’s when we realised Zaiqa Box could be more than just food delivery.
For us, it became about connection.
A quick doorstep chat, a friendly smile, and the comfort of knowing someone’s cared for — those small moments have become a big part of what we do.
🍛 What Makes It Different
We prepare our meals early each morning, just like we would for family.
When one of our team members delivers to an elderly customer, it’s never a rushed drop-off — it’s a warm visit.
Sometimes, we help plate up the food, check that everything’s okay, or simply ask how their day’s going.
It’s food with a heartbeat — homemade, hot, and kind.
🌿 The Impact We See Every Day
We’ve had elderly customers tell us how much they look forward to their Zaiqa Box meal — not just because it’s fresh and comforting, but because it makes them feel remembered.
That reminder — that someone still thinks of them — means everything.
These are the stories that keep us going, even on the busiest days in the kitchen.
💛 Together, We Can Care More
If you know someone elderly in Leicester who could use a daily hot meal — or even just a bit of warmth in their day — tell them about us.
Because food can fill more than stomachs; it can fill hearts too.
