The Vegan Society website offers some very good information on a Vegan lifestyle choice.
I am not a member myself because I do not claim to be Vegan (NEAR yes but not complete).
About Us
Today, the Society remains as determined as ever to promote vegan lifestyles - that is, ways of living that seek to exclude, as far as is possible and practical, all forms of exploitation of animals for food, clothing or any other purpose. With your help, veganism will soon be accepted and understood across the globe. Ultimately, the use of animal products (such as meat, dairy, eggs, leather and wool) will be viewed as an inhumane and unsustainable practice from a much less enlightened age.
The Society's strength is its membership. Countless thousands of people have benefited from joining the Society - initially, with advice and support to help with the transition to a vegan diet, through to help with more practical issues finding non-animal products and maintaining a vegan lifestyle within a largely unsympathetic society. Once their veganism has become established, many members continue their membership to support the Society's work persuading more people to go vegan (for the benefit of people, animals and the environment) and to encourage manufacturers to make more vegan-friendly goods.
In addition to this web site, the Society promotes veganism through:
books, videos and other publications
the quarterly magazine The Vegan
a trademark to help vegans identify suitable products
a local contact network
by providing detailed factual information on a wide range of topics
through annual promotions on World Vegan Day (1 November)
The Vegan Society is an educational UK registered charity (Charity No. 279228) and a limited company (Reg.No. 1468880).
Its a good helpful site and worth a look! They too provide a helpful guide to Animal Free shopping - THE ANIMAL FREE SHOPPER (£4.99). Check the website:

They are members of:
