Kayla’s Kitchen supplies meals

A new Bray business has been set up to help provide nutritious meals to those who cannot cook for themselves.

‘Kayla’s Kitchen’ was founded by Paula Hughes, who came up with the idea because of her own family situation.

‘ The business as inspired by my own immediate family – my daughter Kayla, who has Rett Syndrome and attends St Catherines in Newcastle, my brother Karl, who passed away last year from Motor Neurone Disease, and my parents, who are both 85 years of age with my mum suffering from dementia,’ she said.

Kayla’s kitchen provides tasty nutritious food for those who need it, whether they are are in ill-health or incapacitated somehow, too busy to cook a good dinner or simply need a break from the kitchen. The company sources, cooks, freezes and delivers nationwide.

‘We started the business to help others and to help others help themselves,’ said Paula.
