Event Description:
National Vegetarian Week 2012 is a fun celebration of meat-free food and anyone can join in. The focus this year is on veggie breakfasts and www.nationalvegetarianweek.org is the place to find tempting recipes, free promotional materials, competitions and what’s happening in your area such as discounts, offers and events from local companies, restaurants, community groups and more.

Liz O’Neill, Head of Communications at the Vegetarian Society, said “National Vegetarian Week is a great vehicle for many sectors - there’s a myriad of opportunities to delve into. It lends itself to the topics of health, wellbeing, the environment and of course food. This year’s breakfast theme will help everyone to get off to a good start, realise how much veggie food they already eat and help to tackle head on the notion that life isn’t worth living without a bacon butty.”

About the Organiser:
