I'm in Ireland, but one suggestion is to check the range available in
your local health food shop and look at the labels.  Another option is
to order direct from a sound company.  A search I just did online
gave me this for example:

'Green Valley is a natural health company dedicated to meeting the
needs of the health conscious and ethically concerned consumers of
the UK and beyond.

All of the vitamins, nutritional supplements, herbal remedies and natural
products that we supply contain ingredients that are as natural as
possible.
In short, our products are good for you and good for the environment.
This means that you can purchase from Green Valley with confidence,
knowing that you are sup****ting a company that shares your ethical
beliefs.

Every vitamin, supplement and natural product is suitable for a vegetarian
or vegan diet (many are registered with the Vegetarian society and Vegan
society too.)
