Stephen Walsh
He is actively involved in the UK vegan community and organised the annual UK Vegan Camp for several years. The camp is attended by more than a hundred vegans every year and provides a great opportunity for vegans of all ages and their families to have fun and share experiences. The lessons from those experiences complement the findings of scientific studies to provide the basis for a comprehensive and realistic approach to vegan health.
