Planning for dietary needs
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Remember that stuffing normally contains gluten
- Share the allergen information with the team
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Afterwards we tidy up, leaving the site as we found it.
Tell us about branding or theming for open days and we will fit in.
