Takeaway run or book a van?
Some hosts try a takeaway order. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
Allergies and dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Ask about smaller portions
- Check the spot with your manager
- Arrange texture-modified meals from your own kitchen
- List residents’ diets, allergies and portion needs
We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers.
A bit of music from residents’ younger days helps.
