We can, as long as the school agrees and the truck or trailer can reach the pitch. Tell us the date, the site and roughly how many visitors you expect.
Do you need power?
We will confirm our needs once we know the pitch details, including power and water.
Do you bring plates and cutlery?

Yes, children are welcome. Let us know numbers and ages, and we will suggest mild options.
