HAERE MAI AND WELCOME

The Christchurch Vegan Society/Te Rōpū Whēkana o Ōtautahi is a registered charity that exists to support everyone within the Ōtautahi/Christchurch and wider community following, or interested in, a vegan lifestyle.

Whether vegan or non-vegan, everyone is welcome to come along to our events and/or join us and be part of our vibrant friendly vegan community.
