Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.
Planning for dietary needs
Most events have a few residents with dietary needs. To plan for them:
- Tell us about residents’ needs in writing
- Plan how food reaches residents indoors
- Pick a time that suits the home’s day
- Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
Food for residents indoors goes straight in on plates, while it is hot.
Inviting families makes it even more special.
A fish and chip van or other catering?
Next to a delivery order, the van cooks on site, so food is hot when it reaches residents. Distance and any road charges make a difference, so it helps to give us the postcode.
