The latest episode of my weekly vegan news roundup is online.
As always, a massive thank you to my Patreon supporters for helping to keep the FGV show on the road.
I really wouldn’t be here without the financial support. The WiFi would not be paid!

I’m dropping by to let you know that I am BACK on the podcast airwaves… weekly!
During the first 100 days of lockdown in 2020, I posted daily news roundups via Facebook Live. Those roundups were my way of putting something positive into the world at a very trying time, while also creating a way for our vegan communities to stay connected.
Those daily videos were very DIY but also time consuming. Doesn’t mean I don’t miss them, though!
As the world is still struggling with the global pandemic and things are nowhere near close to how they were before 2020, I am inspired to reach out again and create a weekly show highlighting all the latest news from the world of veganism.
I love connecting and wanted to create a new way of supporting independent vegan business. It also helps that I love the sound of my own voice!
The first episode has just gone live and you will be able to stream across a number of platforms. It is a brief 10 minute listen, so why not give it a try?!
See all about the show and find links for streaming (including Spotify) on my podcast homepage.
This blog has been running for more than 10 years and it is made possible thanks in no small part to the kind support of the people supporting me on Patreon. If you would like to pledge a monthly contribution to help keep the FGV dream alive for a second decade, visit my Patreon page.
Doisy & Dam have been making cute chocolates for a few years but they have totally taken things to a new level by releasing vegan-friendly nut butter cups.
I have teamed up with a respected and established cruise company to create a new vegan cruise arm of their business!
I am the Director of Development for Vegan Culinary Cruises, a high end luxury vegan vacation specialist with a focus on fine dining.
We have two cruises planned for 2020 so far including an LGBT-friendly (all welcome) vegan cruise on the Mekong through Vietnam and Cambodia, plus a late summer general vegan cruise in the south of France.
I’m thrilled to be on all cruises as the group leader and I can’t wait to experience these destinations with likeminded people!
It is being reported by multiple outlets today that vegan snack bar manufacturer Natural Balance Foods is being purchased by the people who make another vegan favourite.
Natural Balanceare legendary in UK vegan circles for their much-loved Trek and Nakd bars, amongst other snacks.
News reports suggest Belgium’s Lotus Bakeries(yes it’s the speculoos people!) has sealed a deal worth more than £60 million to take control and ownership of the popular UK brand of snack bars.
It appears each time you buy Lotus biscuits and Nakd/Trek bars, your money will now be heading into the same bank account.
