Questions from Woughton on the Green
Could you trade in Campbell Park?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Woughton on the Green?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Do you clear up afterwards?
The pitch is left as we found it. It helps to have bins near the hatch.
How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. We will talk it through when we quote.
Are visitors included?
Yes, it is a lovely chance for families to visit.
