Do you know the secret to a healthier planet? It’s on your plate! At ProVeg UK, we’re passionate about the power of plants and how our food choices can make a world of difference.
Fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans are not just superfoods for our bodies, but superheroes for our planet too. They’re the environmentally-friendly alternatives to meat, eggs, and dairy, causing significantly less damage to our own health and the planet’s.
This year, we’re inviting creative young minds to join us in a celebration of plant-based living. We’re launching the Young Artists and Poets Challenge 2023, a unique competition that combines art, poetry, and a love for plant-based living.
The Challenge
We’re looking for children aged 8-14 to create a piece of art or write a poem that highlights the importance of eating more plants. Your piece should revolve around one or any combination of these five themes:
- Taste
- Health
- Justice
- Animals
- Environment
The Prizes
We’ve got some fantastic prizes lined up for our winners, details of which will be announced soon. Plus, the winning entries will be featured on the ProVeg UK website, showcasing your talent to the world!
