London vegan news, reviews & events
BREAKING NEWS.
I’m just a few weeks out from my move to Mexico, meaning my job with Fry’s Family Foods UK is coming to an end. I will no longer be the first to bring you exciting news such as the following:
Fry’s now have four products available to buy via Morrisons online!
You can click on the above image to visit the online shop.
The supermarket is selling just 4 of the 20+ product range available in the UK, but it is a great start.
Do you shop with Morrisons online?
As you have probably seen online, I have teamed up with Fry’s Family Foods in order to raise money for vegan-run Hugletts Wood Farm Animal Sanctuary.
The campaign is off to a flying start. Check out the video update below for the latest news on the campaign.
I am thrilled we have already raised £1000 but we still have a long way to go. Hugglets urgently need funds to restore all of the fencing around their property, as well as install new security cameras to keep the rescued animals safe.
Please donate now and share this news widely.

Would you like to visit Hugletts Wood Farm Animal Sanctuary with me on World Animal Day courtesy of Fry’s Family Foods?
Fry’s is kindly sponsoring a minibus that will travel to the sanctuary on World Animal Day, Sunday October 4, 2015. Lunch and snacks on the day will be provided by Fry’s and passengers will get a chance to meet some of the rescued animals up close and personal.

Today was intense.
I work with Fry’s Family Foods and one of my jobs is to help run stands and exhibits at shows. Today marked the return of the Animal Aid Christmas Fayre to Kensington Town Hall and I got to take Fry’s to the masses. It was intense.
The event was packed solid with thousands of compassionate people, all jostling to get some tasty food and support the animal charities in attendance. Animal Aid do a faultless job putting this event on and I think it would be lovely if you followed them on Twitter.
It was a wonderful day full of happy faces. I was completely worn out from running the stand for Fry’s but the endless stream of friendly greetings from the crowd kept me on my toes and feeling upbeat.
I am indebted to the incredible volunteers from Animal Equality who helped with staffing the Fry’s stand. I honestly could not have done it without them. Please follow this fabulous group on Twitter.
Another crucial component of the day was Sara of Pomodoro E Basilico. Sara cooked from 9:00am until 4:30pm non-stop so we had delicious bolognese to hand out to hundreds and hundreds of people. She was a powerhouse and you should all follow her food business on Twitter.
Now I need my bed. I’m worn out.
