But going vegetarian or vegan for a month does not mean you have to deprive yourself of delicious food.
There are plenty of wonderful restaurants in Mid Sussex offering meat-free options for those who would like to raise funds and treat themselves at the same time.
Here are the top 11 vegan-friendly restaurants in the district, according to TripAdvisor on November 3, 2021.
This list is only for restaurants that are open this month. Cafe Rouge was ranked number one but is currently closed for renovation.
