Upcoming local (and a few not so local) veggie/vegan/AR events, both campaigning and social - Twickenham and Surrey Vegetarians and Vegans

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

 

 

Here are the updates on our programme of meet ups including some

neighbouring groups' events, social and campaigning, so there should be

something to suit almost anyone, vegans, vegetarians and aspiring veggies

who might need a little support on the way to vegetarianism, and those who

want to actively promote cruelty-free living. Hope to see you soon.
