Last night we had our first ever trader awards night and end of year party at The Bristol Pavilion! It was a fantastic evening celebrating 2025 and our wonderful traders who made it so special.

Party guests feasted on delicious vegan food, socialised with brilliant vegan people and danced the night away.

We had a total of 12 awards to give out in total, 10 of which were nominated by the public and 2 were chosen by us.

The awards were lovingly made by local artist murmur. They were all carefully cut from the same discarded pallet to represent our shared values. The lettering branded into the wood to represent commitment and they all contained a living edible plant to represent growth. They were also stained using turmeric and soy sauce!

Some of the votes were super tight so we have included the list of winners and the runners up below…
