- Organise staff to carry food in

Step by step
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we’re there in good time before you want to eat. In summer, Whitmoor Vale has daylight until about 9:20pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In December, with dark by about 4:00pm, lunchtime is best.
- Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- The van rolls up, the hatch opens and the fryers get going for residents.
- Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Check the way in for low branches, cables and narrow gates
- Tell us when you want to eat
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
