The Vegan Society, the world's oldest vegan organisation, founded in 1944, promotes veganism and works towards a world where humans do not exploit animals, offering resources, campaigns, and support for individuals and businesses. The Vegan Society's mission is to make veganism mainstream, promoting it as a way to reduce animal suffering and environmental damage through peaceful and factual dialogue.
They promote veganism by raising awareness through campaigns, providing information, and supporting individuals and businesses. Their Vegan Trademark certification ensures products are free from animal-derived ingredients and testing. Additionally, they advocate for change by working with policymakers on issues like sustainable agriculture, climate change, and public sector provision. To help individuals transition to a vegan lifestyle, they offer various resources, including recipes, tips, and activism tools. Their support network includes a UK-wide network of local contacts and a free email-in service. Furthermore, they conduct research on the relationship between veganism and wellbeing, values, authenticity, and purpose.
Their key focus areas include animal welfare, where they advocate for the rights of animals and an end to all forms of exploitation. They also emphasize environmental sustainability by highlighting the environmental benefits of veganism and promoting sustainable practices. Additionally, they provide information on the health benefits of a vegan diet, supporting individuals in maintaining a healthy and balanced vegan lifestyle.
