have the kind support and advice of two doctors; Dr. Sanjana Jio and Dr. Dev Priya Singhvi, who just both happen to be vegans and are helping us with our local authority proposal. We still have more data to collect and will be running controlled sessions, the gold standard for efficacy in the medical world. How do the Food For Life classes engage and empower your community? Dr. Barnard summarises this perfectly: “It is a way to get practical tools into people’s hands, information that they can use and an understanding of how you can put it to work. For doctors, nurses, advocates and teachers who want to see this movement go forward, the Food for life people are your best right arm.” What are your plans for 2017? Now a team of two (myself and Ceres Bizarro) 2017 has started with a bang. In January alone we delivered healthy cooking demonstrations and lunch for staff at Wandsworth and Richmond Councils in partnership with Healthy Eating Solutions Ltd, and at Royal Free Hospital, Barnet General Hospital, Chase Farm Hospital and the Royal Free Trust administrative staff in Enfield in partnership with For All Our Wellbeing. We hope to continue building on these professional relationships. Feedback so far has been great. And being able to openly use the word vegan has been heart-warming. This kind of work helps us fund our long term mission. We plan to work with more workplaces as they are an ideal and convenient setting for spreading the healthy eating message as most of us spend more and more time at work than at home. On the 1 st of March we will be launching a free monthly diabetes support group open to the public in Camden, London. And I’m in the middle of securing a venue for a monthly Cancer support group. All this whilst we work in the background on obtaining our own permanent venue through business development support. If people want to support or get involved in what you’re doing, what should they do? We are currently fundraising the cost of our monthly diabetes and cancer support groups. Last year we did a lot of what we did using our free time and I self funded a lot of our associated costs. This year we are looking for support from the public to help us further our mission. Please visit our website: www.lifeafterhummus.com where you will find further details. And we thank you in advance from the bottom of our hearts. We are passionate about what we do. Anything else you’d like to share? Help us bring the healthy vegan message to your workplace, your community, and schools by putting us in contact with your wellbeing occupational health team member and we can even work with them on finding funding if none is available through our partners. Thank you for featuring us and to everybody who has gotten us this far. Nothing beats hearing how we have helped people reverse their diabetes, reduce their insulin, eliminate medication they were told they were going to be on for life, or hear that they have been discharged from what they were told would be progressive kidney disease. This keeps me going. BV For more information on the Food for Life classes visit: www.lifeafterhummus.com. You can also learn more about setting up classes where you are at www.fflclasses.org.
