WARNINGS;

While on our premises we advise you that this is a commercial environment, and has associated hazards.

Our equipment is sharper, many utensils are heavier than you may expect. Our ovens and solid top stoves are hotter, than those you may have at home.
The floor is a non slip material, but items spilt on it still become a hazard.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL, BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERS AROUND YOU. IF IN DOUBT, ASK FOR HELP. YOU WILL NOT BE GIVEN ANY TASKS THAT ARE UNREASONABLE FOR THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITY DAY, AND IF YOU ARE UNSURE OR UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE DUTIES, THEN YOU MAY DECLINE TO PARTICIPATE IN THAT DUTY.

All of this information is for your personal safety and advice, please take it into your full consideration.

Domestic issues;
We regard personal hygiene to be very important. We have the main restaurant toilets available to you.
Hand wash facilities are provided in the kitchen and should be used regularly.

For the Full day at Rye, refreshments will be provided and water should be drunk frequently during the day.

Above all the day will be FUN, a unique experience, and a close up look at an environment that is not usually accessible.
