Vegan and Animal Rights Conference (VARC)

The Vegan and Animal Rights Conference (VARC) is a transformative event dedicated to strengthening and energising the UK’s animal rights movement. Our mission is to bring together advocates from across the spectrum—grassroots organisers, movement leaders, NGOs, and new activists—to share ideas, build skills, and foster meaningful connections. ​ Through workshops, thought-provoking talks, and hands-on training, VARC equips advocates with the tools and inspiration to create a more compassionate and just world for animals. Whether you’re a seasoned campaigner or just beginning your advocacy journey, VARC is a space for growth, collaboration, and action.
