- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Share residents’ dietary needs with us in good time
We keep the cooking area away from residents’ windows and paths.

Step by step
We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. In late May, sunset in Kingston Lisle is about 9:00pm, so residents and families can stay outside late.
- A date and rough headcount from the home gets things started.
- We look at photos of the garden or car park and suggest a cooking spot.
- Your kitchen team tells us about diets and textures.
- On the day the hog roasts outside while residents watch from the lounge or garden.
- After serving, we clear away without disturbing the home.
Preparing for the day
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Give us final numbers a week or so before
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
