Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Plan how food reaches residents indoors
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
- Check the spot with your manager
- Ask about smaller portions
Residents in their rooms get food on a covered tray right away.
A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.
How the day works
We arrive in good time before you want to eat, set up and bring the oil up to temperature. Residents typically gather round the hatch once service starts. In Hyde Park Estate, late spring and early autumn evenings stay light until about 8:55pm and 7:05pm; winter visits, dark by about 3:55pm, suit lunchtime.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- A week or so before, we confirm timings and numbers.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Let us know the serving time
- Make sure the van can get in
- Name one person we can call on the day

Should I sort the food myself?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is usually the easier option.
Where the van can park in Hyde Park Estate
A fish and chip van is a vehicle, so the spot matters, so a few things need checking. Here’s what we look for:
- Lighting for later visits
- Firm, level ground close to the home
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
Hyde Park Estate is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
