Air Navigation Order 2005, Article 56
(6) From the moment when, after the embarkation of its passengers for the purpose of taking off on a flight to which this article applies, it first moves until after it has taken off, and before it lands until it comes to rest for the purpose of the disembarkation of its passengers, and whenever by reason of turbulent air or any emergency occurring during the flight he considers the precaution necessary the commander shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that:
(a) all passengers of 2 years of age or more are properly secured in their seats by safety belts (with diagonal shoulder strap, where required to be carried) or safety harnesses and that all passengers under the age of 2 years are properly secured by means of a child restraint device; and
(b) those items of baggage in the passenger compartment which he reasonably considers ought by virtue of their size, weight or nature to be properly secured are properly secured and, in the case of an aircraft capable of seating more than 30 passengers, that such baggage is either stowed in the passenger compartment stowage spaces approved by the CAA for the purpose or carried in accordance with the terms of a permission granted by the CAA.
That refers to baggage. Not sure if any part of the ANO requires the service items to be stowed. Evacuation trials are done with blankets and pillows thrown around the cabin and left on the floor. It could be a Health and Safety violation to leave glass around, as opposed to a violation of the ANO.
If I find any more, I will update you.
Happy landings
