Animal Aid

is the UK's largest animal rights group and one of the longest established in the world, having been founded in 1977.

We campaign peacefully against all forms of animal abuse and promote a cruelty-free lifestyle. We investigate and expose animal cruelty, and our undercover investigations and other evidence are often used by the media, bringing these issues to public attention. On this website you'll find factfiles and reports from Animal Aid campaigns - from animal experiments to humane research, factory farming to vegetarianism, and the pet trade to wildlife. You can keep up-to-date with the latest campaign news, take part in urgent actions, order action packs and even become an Animal Aid member.   www.animalaid.org.uk

Animal Aid produces a wide range of campaign reports, leaflets and factfiles, plus educational and undercover videos, many of which are available online. We take part in hundreds of media interviews every year and distribute thousands of information packs. We produce a quarterly magazine in addition to a regular campaigners bulletin, and a sales catalogue packed with cruelty-free products.

Living without cruelty

Animal Aid actively promotes cruelty-free living - including simple, everyday steps we can all take to reduce animal suffering. We organise Veggie Month, which takes place every March, and the popular Christmas Without Cruelty Fayre, the feelgood event of the year! And we offer a wide range of animal-free products - suitable for both vegetarians and vegans - by mail-order and through our online shop. Progress

Our annual campaigns generate media coverage and public awareness, and include Veggie Month, Horse Racing Awareness Week, and the Mad Science Awards. National network
