What the van needs
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:
- Not blocking ambulance bays
- Somewhere residents can reach safely, or see from inside
- Not right beside residents’ rooms
As a London location, Malden Rushett is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Malden Rushett
Do you come to venues in the Surrey Hills National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for vehicles; ask your venue. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Could you trade in Claygate Common?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
How much space do you need?
Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. Send us a picture if you are not sure.
Can the van park on grass?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Let us know what the ground is like, and we’ll advise.
Where should the van go?
Wherever suits the home, as long as it’s level and safe.
What areas do you cover?
London and South East England: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight.
How do you handle allergies?
Yes, we can tell you which allergens are in each item. Battered fish contains fish and, in standard batter, gluten. Tell us about allergies in advance.
Do you do regular visits?
Tell us how frequently you’d like a visit.
The process
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. In Malden Rushett, the garden season runs from late May, with light until about 8:50pm, to late September, around 7:05pm.
- Start with three things: the date, the place and a rough headcount.
- A picture of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for residents.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Before we arrive
- Clear the route for the van
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Keep space clear for residents at the hatch

About the food
Pie and chips
A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. We’re happy to send a quote so you can compare.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the care home visit.
