What Is Vegan Parent Club?
In short, it’s a community for us! The compassionate vegans, with little vegans of our own.
Being a parent is hardcore! And being a vegan parent, with all the external questions and judgment that comes with it… makes it next-level.
I’ve seen so many websites and social media accounts for vegan kids: how to make sure they get nutrients, meal ideas, weaning, recipes, and so on. They’re really useful.
But what about us? The ones holding it down, day after day.
I’ve created Vegan Parent Club for us to have a safe space, where we can share our unique experiences, feel a sense of community and better our mental health.
It’s a no-judgy zone!
And all are welcome… whether you’re a mum, dad, guardian, co-parenting, LGBT, pregnant, parent of teens… the only requirement is that you’re open, kind and vegan.
Vegan Parent Club was created at the end of 2026. We are going to be running free online socials just to connect, as well as bookable unique journalling sessions and meditation groups. We will also be sharing resources for self care and mental health.
This is just the beginning. Of an honest, welcoming space for connection, reassurance, and support beyond the usual vegan food conversation.
Who We Are
Katy Malkin
I’m the strange lady running our Vegan Parent Club! I’ve been vegan since around 2013, and also went vegetarian at 12 years old. I’m an experienced coach with relevant qualifications to hold space for us all, and currently work for a vegan organisation.
Ben Malkin
You’ll see my husband, Ben, pop into this space and represent the dads out there. He went vegan 6 years after me through taking part in Veganuary. Ben works full-time in eCommerce and Marketing, and loves cooking. He is currently learning BSL.
We have two daughters, Ellie and Ava, who I will feature a little on here but not too much because a) this is for the grown-ups, 2) I’m still unsure about plastering my kids over the internet!
I am not a marketing expert, social media guru or a sale-person. I created this for my own need and other vegan parents I knew who were crying out for it.
So if you notice anything iffy on the site, or have any ideas, let me know! This is a community, and I’d love for it to feel like that for everyone.
Much love,
Katy
