![World Vegetarian Congress 1965 - youth camp](https://ivu.org/images/legacy/history/banners/congress-wvc65-youth.png)
 **BRITISH VEGETARIAN YOUTH MOVEMENT**
 SUMMER HOLIDAY 1965

28th August - 4th September
 Hayes Conference Centre, Swanwick, Derbyshire.
 B.Y.V.M is taking part in the International Vegetarian Union Congress to be held at Swanwick. Accommodation will be in rooms at the Centre and the cost will be approximately £11.

21st - 28th August
 Wireless College, Colwyn Bay, North Wales.
 Because the I.V.U. Congress lasts for only one week, B.Y.V.M. is having a holiday during the preceeding week at Colwyn Bay. Accommodation here will be in dormitories at the cost of about £5 10s 0d.

Meals are provided at both places. There are no camping facilities available. The amount of accommodation is ver limited and it is therefore necessary to book early to secure places.

For more details write to the Bookings Secretary: Miss Gina Cleaver, 172 Olerenshaw Road, Sheldon, Birmingham 26.

A note on this archive. The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly.

Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value.
