New plant based local group


PlantPower

Recommended Posts

Hi is anyone interested in setting up a new plant-based/vegan group in the area? Maybe to try out different vegan options and menus at recommended cafes etc, go to festivals and shows (like the upcoming Vevolution at South Bank), share cook books and media, discuss health and environmental benefits, and generally spread the plant love?


I am a recent convert as of a month (from vegetarian) and feel plant based is a fantastically healthy way to eat and protect the planet :-) It is also an effortless way to lose weight ( I have lost 1/2 a stone in 4 weeks) and save money...

Hello

Good to read your post.


I am a year-a-vegan today! My Re-Birthday!!!


I host supper clubs at my space, 57 North Cross Road. I will be hosting a Veganuary supper club and always offer a vegan option at my East Dulwich Supper Club.


I would be keen to know more.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
