Vegan Stall for National Vegetarian Week

On Tuesday 22 May there was a vegan stall and free food giveaway on busy Oxford Street.

As well as lots of leaflets and booklets about veganism, there was a good variety of food from Redwoods plus home-made sos-rolls and cake. There was lots of interest and it was hard to keep up with the demand for both food and leaflets.

There was great feed-back about the food and as most of the ready-made food was on sale next door in Holland and Barratt, we were able to send people there to get more vegan goodies to take home.

The manageress came out to see what was going on, and why the shop was getting so busy, and donated two bottles of ginger wine for us to give out to people to sample.

All in all it was a great day with loads of people gaining more awareness about vegan food and how easy it is to take a vegan diet.
