John and Ruth met and fell in love sharing their mutual compassionate values, believing that veganism is the only way forward to protect all life. We were married in September 2021 and strive each day to cause as little harm as possible to all beings.
Currently living in Loughborough with our Cocker Spaniel Daisy and two cats, Ivy and Kleio, we enjoy taking dog friendly breaks around the country when not busy with work. Within our cruelty free life choice, Pagan, who sadly passed away in October 2023 at the ripe old age of 14 years and 8 months, had been Plant Based for over 5 years and Daisy currently 3 years. This is now acknowledged and recommended by vets as a perfect healthy diet for canines, provided care is taken to ensure good nutritional balance.
We both share a passion for good wholesome cruelty free foods. John is a qualified vegan nutritionist and Ruth can always be found creating fuss free, delicious meals in the kitchen. No squeals in our meals! If you have any questions relating to adopting a Plant Based diet, perhaps you’re not quite sure where to start, then please get in touch and we’d be very happy to have a chat.
When time allows, we thoroughly enjoy supporting RedHead Rescues Animal Sanctuary, based only an hour away from us, lending a hand with general maintenance and any other jobs that come our way. You can read about all the great work being done at the Sanctuary and perhaps lend your support by clicking on the link.
We are both proud to be ambassadors for Pack Holidays and our beautiful Labrador Pagan enjoyed his last holiday at one of their stunning cottages in Norfolk in September 2023. Many of the cottages cater for multiple dogs, free of charge, and each has a reactive friendly rating ensuring that your dog/dogs have as relaxed a time as possible whilst on holiday. All breeds are welcome including registered XL bullies. Welcome packs are provided that are tailored to guests’ dietary needs along with dog information packs showing dog friendly walks, cafes, pubs and much more. A 5% discount is available on all bookings by entering the code PAGAN5 at the checkout.
There never has been a time when change has been more needed and now is the time to be kind to all kinds. If you’ve any questions at all, please feel free to use any of the contact means on the webpage. Let’s all come together to make a better world for all concerned.
Much Love, John & Ruth – TEAM AWEN
