Welcome to BVV (Birmingham Vegetarians and Vegans)! Our aim is to promote vegetarian and vegan lifestyles through peaceful means.

We normally meet on the 4th Tuesday of every month at 7:30pm at Carrs Lane Church Centre, Carrs Lane, Birmingham B4 7SX (opposite Moor Street Station and 5 minutes walk from the Bull Ring Shopping Centre and New Street Station) for a lively meeting and a talk or presentation from an invited guest. Check the Events Diary for times and prices.

Also in our Events Diary, you'll see that we have a wide range of speakers lined up, and in addition, we also hold other regular social events around the Birmingham area.

Veggie Guide to Birmingham - free download!

You can now download a PDF copy of the 'Veggie Guide to Birmingham' - totally free of charge! The printed version of the guide was launched at the Midlands Vegan Fayre in November 2007, but it's now available to everyone as a download.

The guide features the main exclusively vegetarian restaurants in Birmingham, plus notable omnivorous restaurants, health food shops and accommodation.  The guide is just a start and will be expanded as time and help permits, but at least Birmingham has something! To download the guide, follow this link.
