Board 2025/2026 “Enoki”

Meet the board members!

Chair: Eline
Secretary: Frederique
Treasurer: Hessel

“After being a member for a few years and taking up the role of secretary in 2024/2025, I wanted to continue supporting VSA Leiden as chair of the association. In this role, I’m responsible for ensuring everything goes smoothly – from organising activities to establishing new collaborations with external parties. I hope to keep VSA Leiden a welcoming and wholesome community for all (new) members! Outside of VSA Leiden, I love to cook, go on walks, cuddle with cats, learn a new language, or go to the gym.”

“Looking to connect with fellow vegans in Leiden, I stumbled upon VSA Leiden. Here, I’ve found an open and welcoming community offering a wide variety of activities. As secretary, I take care of member administration and write minutes during meetings. Outside of the VSA, I enjoy gardening, yoga, drum and bass music, working with kids, and trying out new vegan restaurants and recipes. I hope to organise activities that bring people closer together, and I aim to contribute to the welcoming atmosphere for new members!”

“I joined VSA Leiden to meet and experience joyful activities such as jummy dinners, book club, sports, and board games, with people who have an interest in veganism as a communal lifestyle. By fulfilling the board position of treasurer, I hope to contribute to VSA Leiden by bringing people together within the association, helping members thrive while enjoying its activities.”
