Yes, with the school’s permission. Send us the date and where the roaster would go.
How far is Perham Down from London?

Looking after everyone
Not everyone eats pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. A few pointers:
- Tell us what the event asks of traders
- Put the menu and allergen information on display
- Tell us if there is a vegetarian or vegan focus
- Gluten-free rolls can be brought on request
We serve as the queue moves.
Add rotisserie chicken for visitors who don’t eat pork.
DIY versus a catered hog roast
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You cook and carve it yourself; we will confirm what comes with it when you ask.
Full catering or machine hire? With catering, our chef roasts, carves and serves, and our staff clear up. With DIY hire, you do the work and save on staffing.
Planning the cooking spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- Any paperwork the organisers need
- Flat, firm ground for the roaster
- Permission for cooking on the site
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.
