There is a lot going on in London and we are never short of interesting and unique things to do.
With that said, this news about a classic animal-friendly Hollywood blockbuster screening coupled with live music and karaoke is surprising even by London standards!
For much more than a decade now, London Vegan Social has been bringing people together.
It has run under different names over the years, but the heart of it has always stayed the same. In a world that seems more determined than ever to keep us isolated, I try to make a little pocket of safety, laughter, and connection once a month.
This inclusive and welcoming event is back at Karamel in Wood Green on Saturday 26 July 2025 and it’s shaping up to be a cracker. Entry is free, so the only thing you need to bring is your sparkling personality and perhaps a working knowledge of karaoke classics.
Not a thing. Nada. Zilch. I sat down in front of my laptop, stared at the screen for a bit, drank a cup of tea, stared at the screen some more, and then admitted the obvious. No inspiration. Not a single crumb of content. But here we are. You’re reading this. I’m typing this. We’re both involved now, so let’s make the best of it.
I’ve enjoyed the opportunities I’ve had to work with many compassionate and creative vegan businesses over the past 15 years. Being able to merge my love for vegan food, community, and activism into meaningful collaborations has felt like a true privilege.
I have some truly special news for you today if you are a fan of flavour and community.
One of London’s most-trusted vegan culinary experts is returning to the kitchen to host a fabulous masterclass that will leave you inspired, nourished, and deeply satisfied.
If this sounds like your idea of a perfect day, keep reading below to get all the details. Trust me, you will want to book quickly as spaces are limited.
There are some places that mean more than just good food. They become part of your everyday. Your weekend routine. Your community. Black Cat Café in Hackney has been one of those places for me for years.
You can imagine how gutted I was when the vegan café closed for a spell after original team Carla and Nacho made the decision to leave London. For a while, it was unclear what would happen. The shutters came down. The building sat quiet.
