Something Fishy Mobile Vegan Catering

Vegan Fishy Superheroes need help!

vegan fish and chips The amazing world's first vegan fish and chip van is under threat within 12 months of it's start up. Seems the original van was a bit of a lemon and the volunteers need £20,000 for a new van.

If you know someone who could help the van is used by tens of thousands of people each year - a good opportunity for a company who makes eco friendly green vans I think or someone like Redwoods who make vegan fish alternatives (such as fishless fingers)

Perhaps you just have too big a tax bill this year and would rather it go to this worthy cause than towards fighting wars in Iraq etc.
