MEMBERSHIP Your views Magazine feedback Thank you to everyone who took the time to respond to our call-out for feedback on the kind of content you would like to see more of in The Vegan. It was fantastic to hear from members who look forward to the magazine’s arrival each quarter. Thanks to those who suggested future topics for us to explore. Some of you would like to see us tackle more challenging topics within the magazine. We acknowledge that our content is often relatively light in tone, as we tend to focus on the successes of the vegan movement. Our new podcast, The Vegan Pod, was created to stimulate debate on tricky issues in the vegan movement. While the first episodes have taken a slightly different route, due to addressing the coronavirus pandemic, our hope for future podcast episodes is to focus on more challenging topics and to share a variety of views from within the vegan community. We are also planning a more extensive magazine readership survey that will give us a comprehensive view of how our content is received.
Star Letter I was inspired by Rachel Ama’s recipes (Issue 2 2020) and I’ve given the African Peanut Stew a go. I had to replace the blackeyed peas with red kidney beans and we couldn’t get hold of fresh coriander, but apart from that it’s to the recipe. I’ve been a member, on and off, for about 25 years and it’s wonderful to see how veganism has evolved in that time. Keep up your amazing work. Maxine Foster

Calling vegan teens

We’re creating some new resources to support and inspire vegan and vegan-curious teens aged 14–17. As part of this project we’re looking to share stories, tips and advice from vegans in this age group. Do you know of a young vegan who would like to take part? Please email editor@vegansociety. com or reach out on our usual channels.
