Welcome
Who are we?
We are a local group which is affiliated to The Vegetarian Society UK and the Vegan Society. The group was first formed in 2001 for vegetarians and vegans to meet other like minded people and we're a friendly and informal group.
We meet on the first Thursday of each month at the Friends Meeting House, Queen's Road, Leicester, at 7:30pm.
We invite speakers, exchange ideas, recipes and help to promote cruelty free living within the Leicestershire area. (Click here for details of our next meeting)
We also have a Diners Club, eating out once a month at a chosen restaurant - a wonderful social night out and also promoting local eating places to cater for veggies! All are welcome though it is usually necessary to book ahead. (Please visit our Diners Club page or phone Sue on 07786175445 for the details or email us by clicking here.)
LVV is run completely by volunteers and is and are always in need of people to help keep the group running. Please contact our chairperson by e-mail on Protected email address if you would like to get involved.

FREE FOOD LEICESTER - VEGAN OUTREACH GROUP
I have started a new group and had quite a bit of interest so far (more always welcome ;) I plan to do regular events in and around Leicester to promote local groups and causes. I will work alongside groups already established and help their campaigns. I will be doing the first event in the next few weeks, so I can promote the upcoming Fair. If you would like to help, please get in touch. http://www.facebook.com/#!/FreeFoodLeicester

CRAFTY DROP IN WITH LEICESTER VEGAN FAMILIES
It's all about the fair at the moment (in this house anyway!) I've not done a familiy meeting for a while now, but will be offering baked goods and refreshments while the kids (and grownups) get crafty and make some signs for the fair. Keep an eye on the face book page for up to date info http://www.facebook.com/pages/Leicester-Vegan-Fair/172673792801381?sk=messages_inbox&action=read&tid=id.337851336287154#!/LeicesterVeganFamilies
Also, any card or material scraps would be very much appreciated. Ann-Marie : ) or contact me at Protected email address
