Northern Vegan
The positive activist magazine
Let’s Make it Happen
Here at Northern Vegan, we believe in the power of uplifting narratives. Our magazine will be a celebration of the incredible stories that often go unnoticed – tales of resilience, compassion and success within the animal rights movement. Our aim is to provide a nurturing space, for both new and seasoned activists, to recharge, find inspiration and feel supported.
Supporting vegan businesses and sanctuaries is at the heart of our mission. That’s why 50p from every subscription will always go directly towards supporting animal charities. With a cool bar which keeps track over six months, you’ll be able see what you, the readers, have raised each month. Then, on the sixth month, we’ll feature the chosen charity, announce the total and celebrate what we’ve achieved together!
Northern Vegan will also boast of a map of local vegan sanctuaries, nature reserves and exclusively vegan getaways, as well as a list of rescue centres and animal rights organisations that you can volunteer with.
It’ll be absolutely packed with interviews with both well-known and local vegans alike, as well as art, poetry, stories and photos, all created by vegans, for vegans.

And we need people to write “A Day in the Life” pieces as animal rights activists, and we welcome guest writers on all relevant vegan topics.
