I wrote this feature for an issue of Vegan Life Magazine last year, while working with Brooke and photographer Freya Dowson. It’s not easy to read about the traumatic, tiring lives these beautiful creatures lead, but if you are compelled to help, details for how to donate to Brooke, the equine charity dedicated to helping improve living […]

The Ocean Brothers set sail, with oars.  © Adam Rowley  I had the pleasure of interviewing the lovely Greg, one half of the Ocean Brothers, about his recent 3000-mile row across the Atlantic with Jude, his bro. Jude, at 18, is the youngest man to ever achieve this challenge. They are also the only brothers to […]

All bar one of the photos in this post are by www.garethwiwanjones.com The Raft at Chigborough, Essex. Not strictly a vegan destination, unless you make it one yourselves, which Gaz and I are adept at. It was my birthday and to celebrate 35 years stomping about the planet, we booked a log cabin to end […]

Gone Swimming. Back soon. Swimming provides me with one of my favourite moments. As I kick off from the wall (sometimes having just done a tumble turn, if I’m showing off) I glide through the water pretending I’m a dolphin in a swimming gala, beating all the other dolphins as other sea life (but not […]

You say tomato… It’s British tomato season! To celebrate, I’ve teamed up with the British Tomato Growers’ Association to bring you some inspiring recipes. Anything to do with pastry gets a definite guzzle from me. Read More Mango Sticky Rice Been a while since I attempted to share a culinary creation with you – but […]

I was delighted when Top Sante commissioned this idea – they may be a health and fitness magazine but they’re not a vegan magazine – so the publication of this piece illustrates just how mainstream the topic of veganism has become. Indeed, when I went vegan three years ago, none of the non-vegan magazines I […]
