Good luck.
This is a great way to introduce people to the vegan diet and lifestyle. It can sometimes be difficult for someone starting out as a vegan to know where to find animal-free food and products in their local city or town. Hopefully, people can be mentored by others from the same city or area in Ireland.
Veganism really seems to be catching on here, and there is a huge range of vegan products now available in health and wholefood shops. All delicious and guilt-free. Most of the vegans I know are vegetarians who have gone dairy-free. I love being vegan and would never go back!
This is a marvellous idea. For me, personally, going vegan is the best thing I've ever done in my life. I wish something like this had been available when I first went vegan and experienced some confusion about the lifestyle, what to eat and where to purchase cruelty free versions of everything I had grown used to. I am sure this venture will be a great help to budding vegans in showing them that a vegan lifestyle is not difficult and is actually very enjoyable.
This is a such a great idea. Being a vegan in ireland can sometimes be difficult especially if you live outside a city. So to have a person who you can chat to on an individual basis is invaluable to a new vegan. I think ARzone have done something wonderful (as usual) :)
awesome -now noone has any excuse to claim they tried being vegan but didnt hav enough information,or found it too socialy isolating (a feeble excuse when u think what the animals hav to go throuh so we can avoid ofending our friends ,or being forced to spend a little of our time replanning our diet - but sadly a common one nevertheles ) this will provide exactly the kind of one on one support that was lacking up to now.
to stop the billions of atrocitys to which our species subjects non humans,we need to fundamentaly change the way our society thinks about animals.this is what ar zone are working to achive ,an there strong anti speciesist message is xactly whats needed to inspire an educate potential vegans .
also it shouldnt be forgotten that this initiativ was the inspiration of a brilliant an selfless activist ,neil lea -its revival,an the creation of many new vegans, will be an amazing tribute
I went vegan 2 years ago and I could see the benefits as from 4 weeks after becoming vegan
My skin cleared out and my digestion improved hugely
After that I became aware about all the cruelty involved in the meat and dairy industry, and started seeing meat as animals who wanted to live
