Christian Faversham Ltd, operating as Outside Catering Hire and London Event Hire, will close its doors at the end of September after a 22-year journey, having served over 20,000 events, mainly in London and the South, with projects in Paris, Malta, and the Orkney Islands.

We will be selling all our inventory to event caterers, organisers, and other hire companies in quantities. Managing Director Peter Stuart said, “We’re closing to pursue new ventures, fulfilling all commitments and thanking clients for their support.” Known for its extensive, hard-to-hire event equipment, the company is selling all its inventory. Contact Peter, Sue or Helen on eventclearance@gmail.com to purchase quantities; a minimum purchase amount applies.

We have a large inventory of used catering equipment for sale from Government or Educational facilities as a result of kitchen refurbishments. Much of the equipment has been under a Service Agreement since new. If you are looking to buy expensive catering equipment at a fraction on the new price, you have come to the right place.

When you buy a brand new capital asset, as soon as you use it the value drops significantly. Buying used catering equipment that has already been written down in value can save significant amounts of your cash.

The market has been flooded with cheap Chinese copies of British made catering equipment such as Williams, Foster, Lincat, Parry etc. Those cheap imports can be half the price, but often don't last the guarantee period. Continual calls to get your cheap equipment repaired often ends in the equipment being scrapped when engineers fail to carry out lasting repairs. Any Chinese imported catering equipment that we find in a kitchen clearance we send straight to the scrap yard working or not !

We manage assets for several national catering brands, either finding second users in the UK or abroad by recycling their used or updated catering equipment.

Give us a call on 07391 604 110 or send an SMS to see if we have the equipment that you are looking for.

Exactly #whoissarahpage? watch this video https://youtu.be/3hjpeWXTQ9o and come back to read her incredible achievement against all the odds.

Sarah set off from Winchester to run 100 miles across southern England to raise money for CCHS which is short for Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome

The last big challenge Sarah did for CCHS was in May 2019 - running 106 km for the Isle of Wight ultra. Last September, she ran the 60-mile challenge for Cancer Research and got the running bug back! So, Sarah started looking for her next challenge…

Sarah's gorgeous godson, Charlie, has CCHS, and Sarah's best friend and her husband have to do so much to keep Charlie alive every day. Charlie stops breathing every night, every time he has a nap, every time he concentrates hard. His survival means being attached to a mechanical ventilator. Sarah can't do much to support them in day-to-day life, but what she can do is complete crazy challenges and raise money for the charity that supports families like theirs.

CCHS is short for Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome. It’s a rare genetic condition affecting the automatic control of breathing. Breathing for most of us happens automatically - however in CCHS, the normal safeguards used by the nervous system to control breathing don’t work. Most CCHS people mainly experience symptoms when asleep, but some can also stop breathing or under-breathe when awake. The genetic mutation that causes the condition also affects digestion, heart rate, blood pressure and body temperature.

Sarah has made the target big, because this is a big challenge... She would LOVE to raise over £5,000.

06.00hrs Saturday 10th June 2023 Sarah set off from Winchester, little did she know what was in store for her during the South Downs Way 100

Sarah had assembled a dedicated support group of friends, work colleagues and runners from local clubs to act as 'pacers'. The pacers were important support during the 100 mile as was Sarah's support team.

Our Company had already sponsored Sarah, but as the day unfolded and temperatures hit 28 degrees centigrade Sarah's performance was outstanding as she made her way up to to top ten leaders. Almost 400 runners started in Winchester and Sarah was showing the professional runners what she could do to support CCHS and more importantly her best friend and son Charlie.

With 65 miles clocked up it was clear to me that Sarah's incredible performance was something that I couldn't miss, so I jumped in our EV and headed off towards Newhaven athletics club to catch up at the last support point where Sarah would get the Formula One pit stop treatment from her support team just as it turned to pitch darkness. Well-rehearsed and executed, drink, banana, shoes check, tactics support from her trainer Andy. Sarah's partner Max had just warmed up and was ready to run the last 11 miles in the dark through some tricky terrain that catches even the professional in the day light.

Sarah was in 6th place out of almost 400 starters, Sarah had been running now for 17 hours. The question we were all asking ourselves was could she finish, could she be the first female over the line?

I drove to Newhaven Athletics track which was all flood lit and prepared to accept the remaining runners as they finished the gruelling 100 mile run. 140 runners has already dropped out of the race due to the heat and distance.

All of a sudden reality kicked in, Sarah was now in 5th place and almost at the stadium. With cameras at the ready we clocked Sarah and Max running through the avenue of crowd barriers into the stadium. Family, friends and her support team joined Sarah for the last 400 metres as she crossed over the finishing line - 100 miles run non-stop in 19 hours 31 minutes 55 seconds. What an outstanding achievement.

So #whoissarahpage? a very modest organised person who puts her mind to achieving and does exactly what it says on the tin.

Well done Sarah, well done Andy, well done the Pacers, well done the Support Team and thank-you to every one who supported Sarah, gave so generously and are still giving.

If you would like to be a part of Sarah's Just Giving Fund Raising journey you can donate any amount which collectively will make a big difference to children with CCHS - Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome

Hi, I recently bought a 3 burner chargrill oven…. The service was great, the chargrill was spotless and the sales team (Anna) couldn’t be more helpful in shipping the unit to me….
Here comes the but....I can’t find my receipt for it and my account has asked if I could get a copy!!! Kind regards Paul

Many marquee heaters have laid dormant for circa 12 months and as we come out of the 2020 Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic we are aware that our repair service department is getting a constant flow of calls to attend heaters that won't start after the Coronavirus lockdown. We have realised the many people do not have a service contract for their heaters and that many have broken down in need urgent attention as we get back into the swing of supplying heat to our customers events or warehouse working staff.

We operate a repair and servicing solution for the following heater brands, Biemmedue, Arcotherm, Master, Themomobile, Trotec, Heateasi, Ambirad, Grant, Archie Kidd and LB White. We supply brand new heaters from our own stock, we hire heaters short term to events, or long term rental from our comprehensive hire fleet based near the M25.

You can rent from us a brand new 20kW marquee heater for £1.69 per day, and PX your old heater towards the first quarter rental period. Larger heaters up to 235kW are also available on a pro-rata cost basis.

If you have a broken heater that needs maintenance or repair we can get that heater up and running for you too. Once that heater is serviced and running correctly we can offer you an annual service contract for as little as 99p per day. Our post repair and service contract give you access and a 50% discount on a replacement heater should a disaster or failure happen during your service contract. We operate 6 days a week covering our own heater hire and rental fleet in and around the M25.

Bear in mind that as from April 2022 you won't be able to buy low tax red diesel anymore as the supply of red diesel disappears, unless you operate or own a farm or a railway. There are other cheaper long term options and fuel management solutions which we are now installing for our customers. A slight modification to your heater and a bulk fuel tank linked directly to the heater means your per litre fuel costs could drop from £1.10 per litre down to 35p per litre depending on what and where you buy your fuel from.
