Elsie Beatrice Shrigley (née Salling; 30 October 1899 – 13 May 1978), also known as Sally Shrigley, was an English vegan activist and a co-founder, along with Donald Watson, of The Vegan Society in 1944.

She is credited, by some, as coining the word "vegan" with Watson.

[1][2] Shrigley was born in North London, in 1899, to a Swedish mother and Danish father.

[3] In August of the same year, Shrigley along with Donald Watson and others called for "a non-dairy section of the Vegetarian Society"; the rejection of this proposal from the society[5] led to the formation of the vegan movement and the founding of The Vegan Society.

[7] She was also a temporary secretary for the London Vegetarian Society for three months.
