Following an inspiring talk at the Sumac Centre in November 2003 by Food Not Bombs founder Keith McHenry, there has been ongoing interest in Food Not Bombs type activities in Nottingham.
A meeting has been called for Monday 12th October at 7pm at Sumac Centre to discuss fresh plans for a Nottingham Food Not Bombs group, free food giveaways, catering for destitute refugees, wholefood co-operatives etc.

The closest thing to FNB activities in recent years have been the Vegan Free Food Give-Aways by Veggies Catering Campaign and associated groups. The next one is on Friday 16th October to mark the Global Day of Action Against McDonalds (and Veggies 25th anniversary).
