- List residents’ diets, allergies and portion needs

- Fit the visit around routines
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
Staff carry plates to residents who can’t come outside, while it is hot.
Inviting families makes it even more special.

Questions from Cox Green
What’s the nearest station to Cox Green?
The closest is Maidenhead station, roughly 1.1 miles away.
Can the van park in Ockwells Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Where should the van go?
Wherever suits the home, as long as it is level and safe; we’ll check access.
What do you bring?
The van comes fully equipped to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
Can you come every month?
Ask us about repeat dates when you enquire.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. We will agree arrival and serving times with you.
What can residents choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, with mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Can portions be smaller?
Tell us what you need and we’ll plan portion sizes with your team.
Should I sort the food myself?
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. With a van, it is fried on the spot.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.
What the van needs
If a spot isn’t suitable, we’ll tell you. What matters most:
- A clear way in for the van
- Firm, level ground close to the home
- Clear of ambulance access and emergency routes
Not sure about the spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.
