Celebrate World Vegan Month with The Vegan Society! 

November is a big month for The Vegan Society. We are the world's oldest vegan charity, which started in November 1944 when our founding members coined the word ‘vegan’. The first World Vegan Day was created to mark the 50th anniversary of the society, held on 1 November 1994. This was later extended to become World Vegan Week and, as we now know it, World Vegan Month. Every November, World Vegan Month is celebrated worldwide as a time to shine a light on the vegan movement.
