How can you help?

We believe that UK and EU laws must be improved and properly enforced to ensure that all farmed animals have a quiet, painless and humane end to their lives. You can help this cause in the following ways:

Put pen to paper...

...If you, like the RSPCA, are concerned about the welfare of animals at slaughter/killing, please write to your local MP and to:

The Rt. Hon. Caroline Spelman MP
Secretary of State for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs
Department of Environment, Food & Rural Affairs
Nobel House
17 Smith Square
LONDON SW1P 3JR.

Please write concisely in your own words, and mention some of the key animal welfare issues at slaughter/killing and some of the ways in which improvements could be made.

Ask your retailer...

...about their policies regarding animal welfare at slaughter/killing and the sale and labelling of meat from animals that were not pre-stunned before slaughter.
