What is National Vegetarian Week?
National Vegetarian Week, observed the week of May 18–24, is the UK's annual nudge from the Vegetarian Society — the world's oldest vegetarian organization, founded in 1847 — to try a few more meat-free meals and to notice what happens when you do. Started in 1992, the week is built around community events, cooking classes, recipe swaps and restaurant partnerships that show plant-based eating can be as hearty, varied and satisfying as anything centred on meat, while pointing to the health, environmental and animal-welfare arguments for shifting a few dinners a week. The week also gives restaurants, schools and workplaces a shared moment to put plant-based dishes at the front of the menu and to show that eating more vegetables is as much about pleasure and culture as it is about health.
