When we were preparing to launch Plant Based Treaty, some said we were ahead of our time and we'd never get a single city to endorse the treaty. Nearly three years later, and we are getting close to 30! In the UK, it all started with the small Sussex town of Haywards Heath, which paved the way for others like Edinburgh, Belfast, Norwich, Lambeth and Exmouth to endorse.
Please check out our blog to find out how it happened and learn about Councillor Deanna Nicholson is building up a test case of events where plant-based food has been featured and successful, with the aim to make the food offerings fully vegan in the future:

Hi everyone,
Fórum Animal is pleased to announce that Piscicultura Água Pura/Recanto Sol Nascente has publicly committed to improving the welfare of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)! The company has reinforced its commitment in 2025 to continue implementing the following practices:
· Daily assessment of water quality
· Removal of predators from tanks
· Transporting animals only in good quality water
The company primarily sells live animals. However, when slaughter is necessary, the public commitment also ensures that animals will be slaughtered with adequate prior stunning methods such as electric stunning or percussive shock.
Fórum Animal engaged in friendly negotiations with the company in April 2025 based on our "Guidelines for Commitment to Animal Welfare in Fish Farming". We estimate that this commitment will benefit 300,000 tilapia annually in Brazil!
Check out the commitment in Portuguese [here].
We will continue negotiating fish welfare commitments with other companies to expand the positive impact on millions of lives.
For the animals!
