November the 1st is World Vegan Day. In 2014 it was also the 70th anniversary of the founding of the vegan society.
Staff from the vegan society were invited to attend the day’s football match between Forest Green Rovers and Lincoln City.
Present on the day was Neil Robinson, the world’s first vegan professional footballer (now retired, but formerly of Everton, Swansea, Lincoln Town and Darlington). All food served on the day at Forest Green Rovers ground, the New Lawn, was vegan – with a special buffet and birthday cakes laid on. Film by HubStroud.
