This year we put everything we had into exposing the lies and cruelty of the RSPCA. The cost of this massive exposé was approximately £150,000. Because of its press-sensitive nature we have not been able to fundraise until now. We urgently need your support to help us keep our heads above the water so we can keep doing our vital work.
OUR CAMPAIGNS
PLANT-BASED COUNCILS
A volunteer-driven campaign urging UK councils to combat the climate crisis by promoting plant-based eating and adopting 100% plant-based internal catering. By transitioning to a plant-based food system, we can free up land for rewilding, reduce greenhouse gasses, and restore natural habitats.
This campaign empowers communities to take action locally, encouraging councils to lead by example and inspire others to make plant-based changes for a sustainable future.
PLANT-BASED UNIVERSITIES
A student-led Animal Rising campaign that calls for universities to switch to 100% plant-based catering in order to address the climate and nature crises.
Universities hold significant influence in shaping ethical and sustainable practices, and their shift to plant-based menus sets a powerful example for governments and institutions to take meaningful climate action.
VEGANS SUPPORT THE FARMERS
This project seeks to build allyship between vegans and farmers, challenging the media narrative that pits them against each other. Our goal is to collaboratively address issues in our food and farming systems while advocating for a fully plant-based future. However, we are committed to ensuring a just and sustainable transition for farmers, recognizing the needs of rural communities and rejecting any changes that perpetuate injustice toward them.
ANIMAL TESTING ON TRIAL
In December 2022, Animal Rising supporters rescued 18 beagle puppies from Marshall BioResources (MBR) Acres, a facility that breeds around 2,000 dogs annually for testing, and has previously come under fire for welfare breaches (with recorded fly infestations, unhygienic buildings, lack of bedding, and dogs without access to outdoor spaces or enrichment).
Now, 18 people face charges and up to 10 years in prison. This trial challenges the legitimacy of animal testing in the UK, potentially setting a precedent for its abolition. With rising opposition to outdated testing methods, this case could mark a significant shift. We need your support.
