Meat Free Monday One day a week can make a world of difference

We invited children and young people to share the meals they like to eat on a Meat Free Monday – to show world leaders at the COP26, and everyone else, that eating green is easy and delicious! From Tofu Tacos to ‘Use It Up’ Pesto Pasta, Festival of Colour Oat Milk Ice-Cream to Vegan Sticky Treacle Pudding, these young changemakers provided lots of ideas and inspiration. They’re up for it, we’re up for it – and it’s high time that governments took action too!

Thanks to everyone who sent in Meat Free Monday Meals!

Special thanks to Langstone Primary School, Lordship Farm Primary School, Our Lady and St Swithin Primary School, St Peters R.C. Primary School, Wemms Education Centre, Westbury on Trym CE Academy and parents and carers.

Special thanks to Ms Hamda Sheikh, Ms Sophie Dixon and Year 8 and Year 10 students – Priscilla, Rihanna, Alian, Hidaya, Huda, Krishna, Vidhi, Keisha, Aman, Gishon, Dalai, Yasir, Redwan, Hodan, Aisha, Shantewa, Bianca, Mustafa, Angel, Akram, Hann, Mohamed, Mohammed and Makeda – at Preston Manor All-Through Cooperative School for cooking up a delicious Vegetable Curry as part of a special Meat Free Monday workshop.
