Who we are
MeatFreed is led by Patrick Huang and Mike Morris who are part of the June 2021 cohort with Launchpad at Falmouth University.
Our vision: Meat production accounts for 60% of greenhouse gases. We aim to accelerate the adoption of planet-friendly proteins including meat substitutes across all cuisines and all cultures.
Our mission: Build community and movement that incentivises young people to choose plant-based. The increased adoption of plant-based from young people would drive the longest-term reduction in carbon emissions.
What we offer: Members receive perks for exploring #plantbased when dining out and cooking at home. Members can engage with others like them on their plant-based journey.
Our culture: We welcome those who are collaborative, dedicated, ready to listen first and challenge ideas, all while enjoying good food and good company!
Our Opportunities
As we are young and growing, we are excited to work with current and recent across disciplines that are just as passionate about our vision as we are to build our community.

Application Process
We are open to remote work based on your schedule (we do the same!)
Since we work often with students, restaurants and chefs, we are also often in the field like going door-to-door to build our community of restaurants or filming a promotional video for a restaurant owner. For the full experience, you will likely need to join or perhaps lead some of these activities, all while enjoying great food and great company with passionate foodies!
We are interested to hear from you as to how much that you want to commit. We have scope for much more and we are flexible on what works for you related to your level of interest, your availability, and your expertise.
