Allergies and dietary needs

- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork, so we can bring chicken, lamb or vegetarian options
- Add a dietary question to the sign-up
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
- Request gluten-free rolls
If the schedule moves, tell us: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
If it is a themed open day, tell us and we will fit in.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- A safe distance from walls and vehicles
- Somewhere for staff to eat if it rains
- A contact on site
