Looking after everyone
A little planning helps everyone eat safely. Here are a few tips:
- Check the allergen list, as stuffing usually contains gluten
- Let us know roughly how many children
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if anyone needs them
- Count non-pork eaters so we can bring chicken or a vegetarian option
Ensure the gate or side passage is open when we arrive, so we can wheel the equipment in.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
