EASTBOURNE MAN IS FINALIST IN PETA’S ‘HOTTEST VEGAN’ COMPETITION

Winners of Annual Contest Will Receive an Eight-Course Gourmet Vegan Meal for Two at Gauthier Soho

Eastbourne, East Sussex– What does Eastbourne native Mark Goodwin have in common with Joaquin Phoenix, Jared Leto, and David Haye? They’re all sizzling, sexy vegans! The 34-year-old beat out numerous other entrants to become one of seven male finalists in PETA’s UK and Ireland’s Hottest Vegan Competition 2017.

Photos are also available here, here and here.

Eastbourne-based Goodwin is a fitness instructor. “I went vegan 100 per cent for the animals – overnight!” he says. “I try to use my influence as a fitness coach to inform people that veganism is strong, healthy, and ethical.”

“Vegans are, on average, slimmer and healthier and have more energy than their meat-eating peers – plus, there’s nothing hotter than compassion,” says PETA Director Elisa Allen. “Each one of the finalists in PETA’s contest is a testament to how sexy vegans are – inside and out.”

You can vote for your favourite contestants – one man and one woman – to let PETA know whom you think it should select as the winners. Each winner – one man and one woman – will receive an eight-course vegan taster menu for two at top London restaurant Gauthier Soho.

Voting on the finalists to help PETA determine the winners will run until 28 July. Winners will be chosen by PETA based on several factors, including vote count, and will be announced by 4 August. See the full contest details here.

Goodwin is available for interviews. For more information and to vote in the contest, please visit PETA.org.uk.
