Mike Huskisson - Animal Cruelty Investigation Group http://www.acigawis.org.uk/
Please join us

starting at 8pm.
email - [email protected]
Birthdays - The Salad Centre would always be pleased to do a birthday lunch.
They will reserve tables so numbers attending would have to be given.
If you would like to arrange a birthday lunch with some of us attending then please let me know too.
I will send out the details to get the numbers attending and it can be arranged maybe in addition to something you have already planned.
please email - [email protected]
Events - things to share
Would you like to host a 'Vegan pot luck' / 'bring and share' meal at your place?
We need a few people to host this year - If so please let me know. [email protected]
Vegan pot luck meals in homes can be for any amount of hours convenient to the host. eg. 3, 4 or 5pm till 7, 8 or 9pm, etc. or less or more time. The host invites us to his or her house for a social gathering and everyone attending takes food of their choice, hence 'pot luck'.
Generally, it's not known how many people will turn up but if there is a limit to how many people your place will take, 'so to speak' then please email and something can be arranged, although generally people may come and go so this hasn’t been a concern for anyone in the past, as no one notices because we are all having a lovely time!
These events are very cosy socials.. lovely to attend .. please consider being a host or to attend them.
Also if you are are not sure about what vegan food to take then please email - [email protected]
Can you suggest a veggie or vegan friendly place to meet? If you know of cafés, restaurants other venues where we could possibly meet for lunch during the day or evening meal so that more social meetings can be arranged.
Or if you have any other ideas please let me know.
