Veggies is volunteer-led, a community-based, social enterprise, promoting vegan catering and supporting campaigns for humans, other animals and the environment since 1984.
Wecome to Veggies 
website, launched on 14th June 2010. Everything that you expect to find should still be available, either through the menus above or the sitemap, via the search box, or on the archive of the previous site. Once our busy summer season is done we hope to update all content onto this shiny new website.
We support many groups and individuals that share our concerns, making connections through Veggies Directory. This has also been relaunched and we urge like-minded groups to add their details so that we can effectively manage links to them throughout this new website.
Veggies Catering Campaign provides food at almost any event – from campaign rallies to community festivals, from family celebrations to green gatherings. We offer tasty, wholesome snacks, as well as information exploring the links between diet, animal suffering and the environment.
Full details of Veggies events are shown on the diary.
Using pure fruit juices, fresh vegetables, wholemeal bread and other natural ingredients, we aim to provide a balance between organically grown and/or locally produced ingredients, as detailed in the menus section.
Many consider Veggies to be one of the most ethical caterers on the circuit, with policies developed from 25 years experience in organic / fair trade / pure vegetarian catering and we are 3-times winners of the ‘Best Vegan Caterer’ Awards.
If you are interested in Veggies catering at your event, see the Events Menu page or Contact Us.
