Nottingham Animal Rights works to co-ordinate the activities of many of the groups and individuals campaigning for animal rights and welfare in Nottingham.

World Day for Animals in Laboratories 2014We have regular meetings to network activities, to provide a social gathering and to discuss current campaigns. There is no formal membership (to ‘join’ simply join in), but you are urged to subscribe to the group email list to keep up to date with events.

We recognize that turning up to a meeting of complete strangers can be daunting, but the atmosphere at NottinghamAR meetings is always very informal, and by all means bring a couple of friends with you if it makes you feel more confident, everyone is welcome! Vegan foods and drinks are usually available at our meeting venues.

The planning meetings are where you can obtain support from like minded people for campaigns against all forms of animal cruelty.  There is no hierarchy, our broad scope is a consequence of a broad demographic of proactive members.

Whether your interest is in countering the fur trade, factory farming, vivisection, blood sports or (most commonly) all animal cruelty, you will find campaigning opportunities as part of both local and national initiatives, including trips to demos.

We have members from all backgrounds, from experienced activists to those who are new to animal rights or have been appalled by YouTube videos of animal experiments and joined us to do something about it.

So don’t worry if you are new to campaigning, there truly is something for everyone. 🙂  All our activities are 100% legal and non-violent, we do public protests and other direct action, we do information stalls, we do free food give-aways, we do sanctuary work, and in fact anything else we can think of!
