What do our campaigns focus on?

The Vegan Society works hard to promote the benefits of veganism to different audiences through our campaigns. All of our campaigns are informed by our organisational strategy and specific objectives in mind, and are usually aimed at a particular audience.

We’ve tagged each campaign to help you to understand the theme and objective.

About the campaign

We’re aiming to challenge the idea that vegan living is expensive and ensure that whatever your budget, you can thrive as a vegan. This campaign supports vegans on a budget with a host of affordable recipes and tips for low-budget living. We’re also looking at ways that government policies can support the affordability of fruit and vegetables and other healthy vegan foods. 

How you can help

Share your low budget recipes with us! We need your top tips on wallet-friendly vegan living.

About the campaign

We’re aiming to improve the quality and availability of vegan food in public sector settings. Our campaign supports public sector institutions like hospitals, schools, and prisons to offer more and better vegan food and asks for legislation to mandate a vegan option in every institution. 

How you can help

Write to your Council to explain the many benefits of offering more vegan food in their local area.

About the campaign

We still hear from vegans struggling to find suitable products when out and about. This campaign is about ensuring that every sector carries tasty, well-labelled vegan options. So far we’ve tackled trains, planes and supermarkets and have plenty of resources for you to share. 

How you can help

Let us know which area you’d like us to address next by emailing campaigns[at]vegansociety[dot]com– where do you struggle to find vegan food when you’re on the go?
