He moved south again and met his wife at a Vegetarian Society awards ball, and soon after they wrote their first book together. Yvonne Bishop-Weston has worked in the health food industry since leaving university. She managed health food stores, ran the pioneering vegetarian catering company, Cranks, and was the vegetarian face of The Food Doctor TM before setting up her own nutrition consultancy Foods for Life.
