Pig Freud Spring 2016 fundraiser for Vegan

In the short space of 2 months after Pig Freud’s last stop at Vegfest Scotland for his Autumn Tour in 2015, Pig Freud is planning another fundraiser this Spring for an ambitious vegan billboard project in Bristol to convince many to go vegan, live vegan, stay vegan and teach vegan.

Already in 2016, Pig Freud has launched a pilot Vegan “Justice for All” billboard and poster campaign in Brighton and Bristol. Very recently he was seen in St Paul’s, Bristol, posing in front of VegfestUK’s brand-new “Justice for All” posters, and the antics of Pig Freud was on the front cover of the Latest 7 too recently.

Pig Freud’s Vegan “Justice for All” Bristol campaign includes:

- Billboards and large outdoor poster sites in Bristol
- Posters on Buses and Bus stops in Bristol
- Radio Adverts
- Posters and Flyers throughout the city
- Media coverage – Local and National
- Social media engagement – word of mouth

Pig Freud is aiming to raise £5,000 to fund this campaign. Will you help him please? You can help by:

- donating to Pig Freud at VegfestUK Brighton and Bristol 2016
- donating to the following crowdfunder:https://crowdfunding.justgiving.com/PigFreudSpring2016 

There’s also the ADDED BONUS that VegfestUK will match your donations pound for pound!

Join Pig Freud and help him raise £5,000 to create a really dynamic vegan billboard, bus stop and radio campaign in Bristol during May 2016 to help get meat, dairy, eggs and fish off the menu.
