- Add an allergy question to your RSVP card
Once everyone has eaten, we pack up and let the dancing carry on.
A chalkboard sign with the menu by the van adds a nice touch.

- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
- Somewhere close to where people will eat

Woodcote Green: your questions answered
We are gathering after a service at St. Patrick's Church: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it’s worth asking.
