Allergies and dietary needs
Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:
- Book as early as possible for December
- Send round an allergy question
- Plan lighting near the hatch
- Tell facilities or the venue about the van
Park the van close to the door, so nobody is out in the cold for long.
Christmas music near the van sets the mood.
What the van needs
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- A clear area by the serving hatch
- A level, firm spot the van can drive onto
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.
