To mark World Day for Laboratory Animals, campaigners from all over the UK and beyond gathered in London to call for an end to animal experiments. This is the official date of 24 April, a UN recognised day to remember animals who suffer and die in laboratories all over the world.

World Day LogoSome 2000 campaigners met at Cavendish Square, to march through the centre of London, taking the anti-vivisection message to large numbers of shoppers, tourists and residents, followed by a rally to protest against the government’s pro-vivisection policies.

There was food from 4 vegan campaign catering groups: Fairfoods (Devon), Green Garden Cafe (Coventry), Something Fishy (Manchester) and Veggies Catering Campaign (Nottingham).
