This guide will help you identify hidden animal products and explain more about what to consider when shopping and caring for a vegan or vegetarian (veg*n), ensuring that you can provide exceptional person-centred care at all times.

This guide has been put together for those caring for veg*ns. Most people understand that vegans will exclude all animal products from their diet. Not that there isn’t sometimes confusion: for example, honey or hidden animal products can be tricky for caterers who are new to catering for vegans. However, often people overlook that veg*nism is a lifestyle, not just a diet.
