Planning help
Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Tell us about coeliac crew specifically
- Confirm allergies by email
- Give us a map or what3words for base
- Agree how the base is left
A short menu keeps the line moving in a lunch break.
Bins at base keep the location clean.
What the van needs
We’ll agree the van’s spot with you before the day. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- Away from the shooting area’s sound
- A route in the van can manage, with no low branches or tight lanes
- A lit spot for dark mornings or evenings
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before booking.
