Planning for dietary needs

Allergies are taken seriously. Help us by following these steps:

  • Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
  • Have a back-up for special diets
  • Count children separately
  • Collect allergies with your RSVPs

Let the neighbours know the van is coming, or invite them.

A few lights around the van look great.

Should I sort the food myself?

Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it’s hard work. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the party.
