Caterers get free publicity during
National Vegetarian Week 8 ~ 14 July 2002
March 28
The Vegetarian Society
would like to offer caterers across the UK publicity and support
for any events they are planning for National Vegetarian Week 2002.
The theme of the week is world flavours so it's a great time to
hold global gourmet taste events, revamp your menu, put on a healthy
eating
display or challenge your staff to go veggie. You can let The Vegetarian
Society know what you are up to by filling in the National Vegetarian
Week Diary form, online at www.vegsoc.org/nvw or
by calling 0161
925 2000 to get a form.
The Vegetarian Society web site receives over 80,000 hits a week. During
National Vegetarian Week 2002 the press and the public will be visiting
the site to find out what's going on in their area so make sure you are
included. Its free to register so visit www.vegsoc.org
You can also order your Caterers Publicity Pack which includes great posters featuring gourmet food photography, a full colour professional Caterers Booklet and literature to support the week - perfect for displays. National Vegetarian Week 2002 - A Whole World of Taste - runs from the 8th ~ 14th July. It's the ideal time to focus
on all things veggie.
As part of the week's activities The Vegetarian Society will be hosting
the 35th, World Vegetarian Congress, Food for all our Futures, in Edinburgh.
National Vegetarian Week remains the single most successful way for
The Vegetarian Society, a registered educational charity, to raise its
public profile and promote the vegetarian diet. The week aims to
let everyone know how easy and tasty a veggie diet can be. Supermarkets,
health food stores, bookstores, schools, fitness centres and caterers
across the country will be joining in a Whole World of Taste.
Ends.
