MVVG Social Meet-ups in 2011

On the first Saturday of every month, Manchester Vegetarian and Vegan Group hold a social drop-in meeting at Eighth Day cafe, on Oxford Road in Manchester. 

It begins at 1pm, lasts until 3-4pm, and you can drop-in whenever you like. We normally get something to eat but this isn't mandatory, and it's not a meeting in the traditional sense -- we just chat amongst ourselves. 

Anybody with an interest in vegetarianism or veganism is invited to come along, and we always give a warm welcome to newcomers. If you can't spot us in the cafe area, just ask a member of staff. We usually occupy one or two of the benches to the left of the food serving area. 

Here are the dates for 2011:

Saturday, 5th February 2011
