World Day for Animals In Laboratories 2025 . April 26th Rally

World Day for Animals in Laboratories was instituted in 1979 and has been a catalyst for the movement to end the suffering of animals in laboratories around the world and their replacement with advanced scientific non-animal techniques.

On April 26th, the animal freedom movement and the wider public are coming together outside the notorious puppy factory MBR Acres to remember the countless animals killed inside laboratories in the UK and across the world. More at https://unoffensiveanimal.is/2025/03/10/world-day-for-animals-in-laboratories-demo-uk/

If you attend just one event this year, make sure it is World Day for Animals in Laboratories at MBR Acres in Cambridgeshire! The protest starts at 12pm @ MBR Acres, Huntingdon PE28 2DT

This will be the largest event outside of MBR in recent memory; not just a protest against their violence, but a celebration of our movement and our power.

Start planning and book your coaches and minibuses; this is a moment for our movement to come together and rise, and all of us are needed.

If you can`t attend the march we hope you can demonstrate outside your local labs, or shops with links to vivisection. Tag #wdail2025 in your social media posts so we get to see you in action. Let`s make it the biggest range of demonstrations against animal testing held in one day!

Veggies Food is Here Veggies Vegan Catering Campaign will be there to keep you filled with fabulous food

Burton Hunt Supporter in Court

Neil Burton – huntsman for the Burton Hunt – has been charged under Section One of the Hunting Act 2004 which prohibits a person from hunting a wild mammal with dogs.

Following an initial hearing the case has been referred to Lincoln Magistrates Court on Friday 25th October.

Please support the witnesses by showing solidarity at the court.

“We politely request that people remain mindful of the ramifications that online speculation may have for the outcome of this case and refrain from doing so speculation or heated discussion.”

Don’t put Britain on the nuclear front line: day of action – Lakenheath base

No US nukes in Britain – Make Lakenheath a nuclear-free zone!

Join peace activists from CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament)  and other campaign groups at RAF Lakenheath, protesting against US plans to base deadly nuclear bombs at the base.

Join the protest, learn more about what’s going on at this base and help build our campaign to stop nuclear bombs coming back to Lakenheath!

Time: Midday to 2pm (followed by peace picnic if weather holds!)
Place: Lakenheath Main Gate (Gate 1), Brandon Road, Brandon IP27 9PN
Nearest station: Brandon – 15 minutes’ drive by taxi

We will be bringing #FoodByVeggies

Grand National Protest

Every year hundreds of horses are raced to death in Britain, and thousands more are killed for meat.

Horses are abused by trainers and others in order to make them run as fast as possible, no matter the consequences to their health and happiness.

68 horses have died at Aintree since 2007.

Please DO NOT bet on animal’s lives. Betting income and racecourse attendance fees keep the racing industry in business.


See also Animal Aid horse racing campaign pages and the list of all the horses killed at Aintree and other race courses since 2007 at Race Horse Death Watch.


Various Animal Rights Groups in Nottingham including  Nottingham Animal Rights, will come together on Saturday 5th April to fight the Grand National. Bring flyers, posters. If you’d like to order Animal Aid’s Sanctuary Not Cruelty leaflets to hand out in your town centre, please email Animal Aid.

Call on Broxtowe Council to reject Trowell Zoo application

 


A date has been set for Broxtowe Council to discuss the controversial Trowell Zoo application and we need YOU to help the Council reject it.

It is up to us to show that this green belt flood plain land should remain undeveloped, and that authorising NEW zoos is a step backwards in 2024.

Our Animal Rising supporters in the midlands have worked tirelessly throughout 2023, and into 2024 to call on Broxtowe Council to reject the zoo application.

This is your chance to join our efforts as we gather outside of the Town Hall, Foster Avenue, Beeston, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG9 1AB at 5:30pm on Wednesday 13th March and call on the Council to decline plans for further animal exploitation, and to protect our local wildlife and green spaces

For more information see the statement from Born Free Foundation

Born Free strongly opposes the exploitation and keeping of wild animals in captivity and campaigns to Keep Wildlife in the Wild.
