Isle of Wight Vegetarians & Vegans
Isle of Wight Vegetarians &
Vegans is a very informal group that aims to enjoy life and at the same time promote
vegan and vegetarian living. We originated as the Isle of Wight Vegetarian
Society back in 1976 and some of the founder members are amongst our number
today. At present we have members spanning all age ranges and walks of life.
We get together occasionally for
social and business meetings - we always make time for refreshments and
socialising as well. We also try to meet occasionally at various locations
across the Island for other activities, such as walks and, in the summer,
barbecues or picnics.
We are happy to offer general
help and advice on adopting a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. We also have a
range of free literature available and our own very popular recipe books for
sale, "Meals Without Squeals" and its sequel 'More Meals
Without Squeals' - see here.
We support national activities
and campaigns - such as National Vegetarian Week, promoted by the Vegetarian
Society (UK) - and donate funds to various appropriate charities and campaigns.
There is no formal membership or
subscription to Isle of Wight Vegetarians & Vegans – all are welcome to
participate. The IWVV Update is available by e-mail or post by
registering with us – see here.
If you would like any further
information, help or advice, please get in touch - see the Contacts information.
