Over the last few years, the face and image of veganism has changed for the younger. What can the different generations of vegans learn from each other? Come and join us for a panel discussion involving a veteran vegan campaigner of several decades’ experience and one of the new generation – and do bring your own unique perspective, too.

In recent years, the number of vegans and meat-reducers has SOARED worldwide. At the same time, globally, the population aged 60 or over is growing faster than all younger age groups. This begs a number of questions: How inclusive is the vegan movement to older adults? And if I get dementia, will they serve me meat? Find out more in this fascinating talk by Amanda Woodvine, Chief Executive of V for Life.

Getting older doesn’t have to mean getting less healthy, more dependent on medication, frailer and less visible. It can be a time when you really explore your potential and find that you can be healthier, fitter, stronger and happier than you’ve ever been. In this talk Jane will explain the steps you need to take to do this without feeling deprived or miserable.

Most of us have not only freely chosen to follow a veg*n diet and lifestyle; we fully intend and expect to carry on that way for the rest of our lives. But what if that decision is taken out of our hands? Exploring such questions as ‘if I get dementia, will they serve me meat?’, and ‘will my lifestyle and beliefs be understood and respected in a care environment?’, this session considers what it will take to ensure that we and our loved ones are able to stay veg*n for life. Not only can you become empowered to have your own choices respected, but you can help V for Life advocate for older veg*ns across society as a whole.
