TAKE ACTION, SIGN THE PETITIONS!
We strongly believe that challenging the government and making them question its outdated laws and legislation is the way we can end animal testing here in the UK. We need everyone to sign the below petitions to keep the topic of animal testing on the political agenda.
URGE LABORATORIES & MBR TO REHOME RATHER THAN KILL UNWANTED BEAGLES!
Currently, institutions that use Beagles in testing, or breeders that supply them to the laboratories, are required by law to have a rehoming policy in order to be granted a license.
What happens though, is that the dogs are always euthanised rather than being rehomed.

STOP THE GOVERNMENT GIVING OUT CONTRACTS TO CRIMINALS!
Both Marshall BioRescources and Envigo (Inotiv) operate in the UK. Both of these businesses have criminal records for animal cruelty, yet are given UK Government Contracts and are funded by the taxpayer.
Animal cruelty is not acceptable to the British Public and nor should we be made to fund them.

REPLACE CRUEL AND OUTDATED ANIMAL TESTS WITH MODERN, HUMAN RELEVANT TEST METHODS!
The FDA estimated that 92% of drugs that pass preclinical tests, including “pivotal” animal tests, fail to proceed to the market. The main causes of failure are lack of effectiveness and safety problems that were not predicted by animal tests.
Not only is the continued use of animals responsible for an enormous amount of avoidable animal suffering but it is also responsible for a significant incidence of human adverse drug reactions. The pharmaceutical industry is best placed to make the paradigm change needed to replace outdated and unreliable animal tests with cost effective human relevant test methods, including human 3D cell culture, organs on chips, pharmacogenomics, and similar 21st century technologies that were previously unavailable.

ASK YOUR MP TO SIGN PARLIAMENTARY EDM 278!
Experts in the wider scientific community, outside the animal-based research sector, openly agree that laboratory animal models are now demonstrated to hold no predictive value for human patients.
Parliamentary EDM 278 enables MPs to call for medical evidence to be heard, which will prove beyond doubt that animal experiments should be abandoned without delay.
