reason: whether to reduce animal suffering, improve their health or reduce
their carbon footprint - or indeed all three.
Pledgers
undertake to follow a vegan diet for one month, and attend a workshop at the
beginning and end of the month consisting of cookery demonstrations, talks,
discussions and nutritional advice from a registered dietician culminating in a
delicious "I Can't Believe It's Vegan!" lunch. They are also assigned
a vegan "buddy" who they can contact with any queries or problems,
and a programme of social events during the month offers a chance to get
together with fellow pledgers.
Over half of
last year's pledgers decided to remain vegan, and a large proportion said they
would eat more vegan food in future. Among the former was Honiton Green Party
councillor Sharon Pavey, who praised the initiative:
"I'm so happy being vegan now, over 9
months on. It was the right decision and I'm really pleased with it all and
thank you to EFFA for organising the Go Vegan month".
The workshops
take place on Saturday 2 March and Saturday 13 April at the St
Sidwell's Centre, Sidwell Street,
Exeter. To take
part, contact Kim on 07810 898440 or see our website www.effa-uk.org for more details. Now also

“What a load of tosh.
Everything in our make up is designed for us to be carnivores. It goes against the human psyche from the beginning of time to be herbivores.
Give me a nice slice of horse any day :)))”
