Share your story and become our case study
Positive, strong personal stories can be a wonderful way of spreading the word about veganism and inspiring people to go vegan. If you’d like to help us ensure such stories make the news, read on!
The Vegan Society press office often hears from journalists from various newspapers, magazines, radio stations and TV stations who want to interview a vegan. Such requests can range from a local radio station asking to chat to a vegan about their reasons for making the switch, to a magazine searching for vegan health stories, to a TV station running a segment on vegan children.
We want to match the right case studies with journalists and to be more proactive at sharing positive vegan stories with the media. Even if it feels like a short quote in a newspaper or two minutes on the radio, remember your message is seen or heard by thousands if not millions of people.
Every story is valuable, but we are particularly keen on these categories:
- Health story example (vegan diet helped with a health condition)
- Family story example (raising vegan children)
- Specialist or expert story example (e.g. vegan vet, vegan GP, vegan makeup artist)
- Amazing or unusual story example (e.g. animal farmer or butcher gone vegan, breaking vegan stereotypes)
- Vegan sportspeople and athletes story example (proving that vegan nutrition is adequate)
- Positive vegan victory story example (e.g. campaigned for a local school to include vegan options)
- Inadequately catered for story example (in a hospital, school etc.)
Please submit your story even if you feel it’s weak – it may be just what we need. Don’t worry if you haven’t got any experience but would still like to share your story – we offer media training and additional help ahead of any interviews.
