About us

Plymouth Environment Centre is being developed by a new voluntary group, formally constituted in December 2004, 

Company No. 5747622
Charity No. 1115381

our charitable objects are:

To advance the education of the public in Plymouth and its surrounding area in all aspects of ecologically sustainable lifestyles and development in accordance with vegan principles:

1. by the provision and distribution of information about organisations, campaigns, scheme and projects that exist to protect the environment and improve quality of life for humans and animals; and
2. by the encouragement of greater consideration towards the environment, humans and animals for the benefit of the public

In this context Vegan means :-

". . ways of living that seek to exclude, as far as is possible and practical, all forms of exploitation of animals for food, clothing or any other purpose. . . Ultimately, the use of animal products (such as meat, dairy, eggs, leather and wool) will be viewed as an inhumane and unsustainable practice from a much less enlightened age."

We are working towards having an information resource that will cover local, national and international issues concerning the environment, human rights and animal rights.

Our library currently has over 120 books on various subjects. We also have magazines and leaflets from many national organisations.

The centre will also have a proposed green shop and an ethical café.
