Leaflets

One of the most effective ways of educating others about the health and ethical benefits of a plant-based diet is by distributing literature in public places. The great thing about leafleting is the lack of preparation time required. At the right time and place, just one person can hand out a whole bunch of flyers in less than an hour and really make a difference.

Our "The Clock Is Ticking..." flyer is a good for whetting people's appetites about the health and environmental benefits of switching to a plant-based diet, while our three "Why?" factsheets document the cruelty involved with factory farming and are good for handing out on stalls, pinning on noticeboards or just giving to friends who are unaware about these issues. Download and print out these resources below.

Any busy area with foot traffic is ideal for distributing your literature and since young people tend to be very interested in health, environmental and animal cruelty issues - and are open to change - college and University campuses and concerts are also great places to leaflet.
