consisting of cookery demonstrations, talks, discussions and nutritional advice
from a registered dietician. culminating in a delicious "I Can't Believe It's

any queries or problems, and a programme of social events during the month
offers a chance to get together with fellow pledgers.

The workshops take place on Saturday 2 March and Saturday 13 April at the St Sidwell's
Centre, Sidwell Street, Exeter. To take part, contact Kim on 07810 898440 or see our website www.effa-uk.org for more details. Now also on facebook! https://www.facebook.com/DevonVeganPledge
