Greyhound racing leads to injuries, neglect and death. Scotland and Wales are close to ending this cruelty. England must follow.

Animal Aid’s petition has passed 20,000 signatures, but the government has offered no action.

On the first day of December we are reminded that in 25 days hunts will parade through our towns.

These festive meets hide a season built on cruelty. We urge Defra to launch the hunting consultation by January.

We cannot see another year of these parades of cruelty.

As families gather around warm fires this Christmas, hunters will take to the countryside. Chasing terrified animals in the name of ‘sport’.

Stand against that cruelty. Your gift will help expose hunts, strengthen the law & protect the vulnerable. https://leagueacs.co.uk/UTOxP

Confidence in hunting’s so called ‘regulator’ is collapsing, even among its own supporters.

While animals are still chased and killed. We need stronger laws and real accountability.

In the stillness of winter, a fox curls beneath a hedge. A hare pauses on a quiet path. A deer finds shelter under holly & ivy.

They all deserve safety, but hunts still chase them through our countryside.

Christmas should mean peace for everyone. Including the animals who share our countryside.

But thousands of foxes, hares, deer and mink will spend this season running in fear from hunts.

Your support can help end that cruelty. https://leagueacs.co.uk/XMj7d

9,551 of you have already added your names to call for an end to hunting with dogs in Northern Ireland. 💪

Northern Ireland remains the only part of the UK where foxes, hares and stags can still be chased and killed by dogs.
