• Try out a recipe - online discover our 7 new, tasty and surprisingly simple recipes for you to try out, all created by real veggies who use them all the time.

• Hold an event - if you are a shop, restaurant or pub create a special menu, give discounts or host an event (tastings, talks, displays). Visit the NVW site for ideas and inspiration.

• Go veggie for the week - visit the NVW site for information on how to go and stay veggie for the week - order a Going Veggie guide and check out all the recipes and info available.

• But what do you eat? - For NVW 2013 we want to show the UK what vegetarians eat. We’re collecting fuss free veggie food pictures to show variety and tastiness. Visit the website for more details.

• Ultimate Beans on Toast - the most basic of meals is a perfect example of a veggie dish that even non-veggies enjoy. On the NVW website we’ll be displaying beans on toast sent in by the public - with their own veggie twist. 

Our world is complicated enough and one surprisingly simple change will benefit your health, the environment and animals. Going vegetarian isn’t rocket science, it’s just delicious.
