Festival of Life (FOL)
is a non-sectarian, non-profit network of dedicated individuals
who are working co-operatively towards helping inform,
educate and promote the benefits of healthy diets and
lifestyles. In an age of ever increasing sickness and
obesity aggravated especially by the predominance
of junk and fast food, drug use, stress, environmental
pollution etc in modern culture - FOL aims to present
to the public alternative modes of living which enhance
physical, mental and spiritual health rather than destroy
it.
Concomitant with individual ill-health,
the environment is suffering as a consequence of, among
other things, a consumer-orientated society, lack of respect
for the beauty of our countryside and wildlife, ignorance
of the dangers of modern farming practices and land management
and our dissociation from more natural ways of living.
The Earth is reaching a crisis point
in its ability to sustain ever-increasing numbers of people
with an ever-growing demand for material goods and services.
Now, more than any other time in history, is it necessary
to implement changes for the benefit of present and future
generations of humanity, as well as for the preservation
of natural habitats and wildlife diversity.
The essential message of FOL is along
the lines of feet on the ground, head in the clouds,
love in the heart". We particularly celebrate the
benefits of raw, vegan, live food.
