Festival Organiser Victoria Bryceson said: “With the vegan lifestyle starting to go mainstream there’s a massive demand all over the UK for vegan-friendly events. Our festivals are set to be a fantastic day out whether you’re vegetarian, vegan or simply curious. The reasoning behind the festivals is to educate and inform everyone about the vegan lifestyle and offer support to anybody who would like it.”
Victoria’s life has been totally changed by her decision to go vegan, herself. She reports: “I’ve never felt happier and healthier!”
Victoria launched the festivals herself. She had a simple aim, to promote animal welfare and to help people learn more about living a healthier and more ethical lifestyle.
She adds: “There will be animal welfare charities raising awareness of their causes. It's an idea opportunity for those wanting to volunteer for such groups to learn more.”
The festivals operate in conjunction and partnership with animal welfare charities like Miracle's Mission.
“It’s about trying new things and opening your eye to new possibilities,” continues Victoria. “Cutting out meat and dairy is easier than you might presume, many people are searching for more healthy and ethical lifestyles.
"People want to learn about new, innovative foods and recipes, but, of course, they want to do it affordably. Our festivals will educate people on how to do all of this.”
