Last Chance – Buy One Get One Free on Tickets

With all the recent publicity about the health and environmental benefits of reducing one’s meat and dairy consumption, people all over the UK are actively seeking to replace their meat and dairy with decent vegan options – but where to start? Look no further than VegfestUK London – the UK’s biggest vegan event and full of inspiration to help even the most hardened meat lovers amongst us.

Making Sense on The Horizon

‘Giving up meat and dairy – or at least reducing our consumption – makes perfect sense on paper, but the reality can be somewhat different. ‘says VegfestUK organiser Tim Barford. ‘The recent BBC coverage of the health and environmental effects of meat and dairy consumption have influenced a large part of the UK population, and many are now actively seeking to give up meat and dairy. VegfestUK events offer a huge selection of food, cookery demos, films, talks, shopping and entertainment, all of it plant based, and can help provide the ideal stepping stone for those who have made a decision to cut back on meat and dairy consumption. VegfestUK events are inclusive and welcome people from all backgrounds regardless of the current dietary status. Around 30{ae720e0b436026f867bfa0c31185c2252a138f27e85f5f152ec5acc1c10a8cc9} of  our visitors eat meat and dairy, and around 30{ae720e0b436026f867bfa0c31185c2252a138f27e85f5f152ec5acc1c10a8cc9} are vegetarian, with around 40{ae720e0b436026f867bfa0c31185c2252a138f27e85f5f152ec5acc1c10a8cc9} already vegan, so there’s a fantastic mix of people at all our events.’

Tony Bishop-Weston Vegan Cookbook

Vegan Chef Tony Bishop-Weston first wrote the first edition of The Vegan cookbook to mark the Diamond Jubilee, 60th Anniversary, of The Vegan Society in 2004

“The cookbook was a bit of ahead of it’s time in 2004, back then ingredients such as quinoa and agave syrup weren’t so well known, 10 years later they are easily available in the supermarkets and people won’t find them so strange”

Meanwhile thanks to everyone’s hard work interest in veganism has grown enormously , one look at Google trends over the last 10 years will prove that.”

Vegan Cookbook Celebrates 70 years of Vegan

The Vegan Society 70th Anniversary, Tony’s 20th anniversary as a vegan and 10 years of UK Vegfests seemed the perfect moment for Hamlyn to publish the Vegan Cookbook in it’s new A5 format and a kindle version.

Vegan versions of banoffee pie, omelette, the ultimate pizza recipe , chocolate ice cream and chocolate cake are ingenious, healthier and delicious. Photos are great and the nutrition reference section is handy for new and old vegans alike.
