The Vegetarian Society of the United Kingdom is the oldest vegetarian organisation in the world. It is an educational charity promoting understanding and respect for vegetarian lifestyles WHAT DO YOU DO? We offer expert advice on nutritional issues and provide free information to individuals, companies and organisations. We keep vegetarianism in the news and feed the real facts to the press. We campaign to raise the profile of vegetarian issues and help people understand the reasons for choosing a vegetarian way of life We give talks and presentations to schools, colleges and community groups. We distribute teacher and student packs to ensure that vegetarianism is well represented in the Food Technology curriculum. We teach members of the public and professional chefs how to cook imaginative, creative and delicious vegetarian food. We set standards for what is truly vegetarian, then challenge perceptions with National Vegetarian Week. We work behind the scenes with the food industry to improve provision; persuading food manufacturers and retailers to use free range eggs, to take the gelatine out of their yoghurts or to cook their veggie burgers separately from their meat. We give vegetarians and vegans from all walks of life a louder, stronger, betterinformed voice We reward integrity within the vegetarian marketplace with the Annual Vegetarian Society Awards WHY ARE YOU A CHARITY? As a registered educational charity, our members and partners know that everything we do is done to promote knowledge and understanding of vegetarianism. This helps us to work constructively with businesses, government agencies, policy makers and institutions whilst remaining independent of these big players. We do not receive any government funding, so we rely on membership fees and donations to carry out our vital work
