Viva! Supporters' Discount Scheme Viva! has built up a network of veggie-friendly shops, cafés, hotels and restaurants who are willing to give supporters more for less. So, by supporting the good work of Viva! you get to help yourself as well as the animals!! To take advantage of this scheme, you need just two things – your Viva! supporter card and a list of participating businesses in the South West which you can find by clicking here. If you are not currently a Viva! supporter, click here to join online or contact the Viva! office on 0117 944 1000. Before you know it, your joining pack – complete with supporter card – will be winging its way to you and you, too, can benefit from the discount scheme.

Financial Partners needed for A Vegan Hotel/B&B in Europe Our aim is to buy a large hotel/country house which is to be the heart of an adult non-denominational meditation centre/community and provide quality but inexpensive accommodation to short or long term visitors. Ideally, we would be located in warm, coastal Europe with extensive grounds, pool, restaurant and healing centre. We are looking for committed vegans with a sense of humour and an open mind to create a compassionate and non-violent environment in which to live together.
