Meanwhile there is a growing awareness that the single most effective thing that an individual can do to benefit the climate is to change their diet.
The dilemma - how far should Veggies travel to promote this message?
Guided by feedback from their Events Catering Survey (

Towards these ends Veggies have been fitting out a spare catering trailer on behalf of a new mobile vegan group, Team Phish, to be based in Manchester.
In advance of the public launch of this new project, an exclusive Phish 'n' Chip Supper is to be held at the Sumac Centre's People's Kitchen at 6.30 THIS SATURDAY 17th May.
Also this Sunday 18th May at 1pm, a scrumptious fundraising vegan roast dinner with all the trimmings is to be held at Nottingham's Sumac Centre. See 'Team Phish details at

... however ...
Just as this new project was nearing completion Veggies hit a crisis when their larger, newer trailer collapsed due to damp in it's wood panels! However within days a replacement trailer has been found into which the contents of the now dead trailer are being transferred.

Veggies crew are therefore now working all hours to refurbish/rebuild _three_ trailers before the Newark Beer Festival (23/24th May), Nottingham Green Festival (25th) & Kingston Green Fair (26th), closely followed by the Bristol Vegan Fair (31st May/1st June).
The dead trailer is being converted into a flat-bed trailer to be made available as a community resource, as the chassis is sound. Help is needed to complete this before the weekend, to make it available for the Sumac outbuilding re-roofing project which is also happening this weekend.
Your feedback on our work and future direction is very much welcomed. Please see our event catering survey at
