Live sounds from Sumac favourites The Darlings … ('of the permanent revolution') and ... Wholesome Fish!

Veggies provided a free buffet, raising £86 donations for Vegfam

Vegfam is a vegan charity which provides relief to victims of drought, flood, war and other emergencies. Vegfam promotes the advantages of a vegan diet and lifestyle for feeding the world in an environmentally friendly way . The event is dedicated to the memory of Vegfam trustee, Frieden Howard, who sadly died recently.

The 'Free Bar' with payment by donation, raised £150 towards a memorial for Ian Juniper, who sadly died a week before the event.

May Day Minus One is a Forest Fields Social Club event.
Members and Guests are welcome.

Whenever possible Veggies feature the publications of the Movement for Compassionate Living, which we print and distribute to promote simple living and vegan self-reliance as a remedy to the exploitation of humans, animals and the Earth. We also support our nominated charity, Vegfam, ‘Feeding the hungry without exploiting animals’. If you can help us with either of these projects at this event, whilst we are busy with Veggies catering, please email pat@veggies.org.uk.
