Film set catering for your shoot in Lewisham

Planners, venues and businesses
If the event is on someone else’s land, you’ll need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Marquee hire companies frequently have rules about cooking near their tents, so let them know about the roaster. We’ll keep the roaster well clear of the marquee.
