Things to do for National Vegetarian Week

Individuals and families are welcome to get involved in National Vegetarian Week as well as groups, organisations and businesses. Here are a few suggestions you might like to consider:

• Write a letter - to your local paper, parish magazine, school magazine - anywhere that might be interested and tell them that National Vegetarian Week is happening. Need help? We have a letter-writing guide in pdf format

• Order a copy of our leaflet 'Food for Thought' for yourself or a friend who is thinking about going veggie.

• Talk to your friends about National Vegetarian Week and encourage them to look at our website for further information and events

• Encourage your veggie friends to join The Vegetarian Society and support our work.

• Invite a non-vegetarian friend or two round to your home for a meal. Have a look at our recipe pages for inspiration.

• If you take your lunch in a large works canteen, then order a copy of Serving Vegetarians - A Guide for the Catering Industry to pass on to the Catering Manager.

• Talk to your local cafe/restaurant/pub and ask them to put on a special veggie meal for the Week. Mention that they can get free publicity in our online diary.

• Encourage local business to display our posters (coming soon).

• Take some veggie food into work to share with your colleagues.

•Challenge a non-veggie friend to go veggie for the Week.
