A look back at a pioneering vegetarian
For International Women’s Day 2025 we look back at an interview from 1984 with a very pioneering and inspiring woman, Linda McCartney, who then went on to became our patron, along with her husband, Sir Paul McCartney, thirty years ago.

Linda McCartney has been interviewed twice for the Vegetarian Society members magazine, this is a copy of the first interview in 1984, before she and her husband, Sir Paul McCartney, became patrons.
