We’re working tirelessly to create a kinder world for farmed animals where they are treated with compassion and respect.

This includes fixing our food system, strengthening animal welfare protections and ending factory farming.

While fish are some of the most farmed species in the world, they sadly have the least welfare protections. 🐟

There are far too many sentient beings capable of feeling fear, frustration and pain, brutally abused and cruelly treated in this world.
When we stand up for the vulnerable, whether human or non-human, we become better versions of ourselves

1.4 billion pigs were slaughtered worldwide in 2024.

Behind this staggering figure are billions of individual animals. Many suffered on factory farms.

We're calling for an end to industrial farming and a transition to a kinder food system: bit.ly/4zBOP5u

We must build a kinder and more efficient food system that's better for animals, people and the planet.

It’s #WorldFarmedAnimalsDay - few people would think of Atlantic bluefin tuna as a 'farmed animal', yet up to 1 million of them are taken from the wild & confined in cruel sea cages each year.

Today we remember the sad passing a year ago of our beloved @ciwf.org.uk Patron Dr Jane Goodall.
We remember her empathy, conviction, determination, tenacity and love.
She was a gift to the world and always prepared to stand up for the voiceless.
Her legacy will be everlasting 💚

🍂 Autumn is here. Millions of animals across Europe won't notice - because they're still in cages.

But @ec.europa.eu knows. This is when it promised its proposals to phase out cages.

The current food system isn't just pushing our planet to the limit, it's also wasteful & inefficient.

We're calling on @ec.europa.eu to transform food production & move away from factory farming.

On foie gras farms in the EU, most ducks & geese are kept in cages during the brutal force-feeding stage.

Keeping them in cages restricts movement, prevents natural behaviours & can cause aggression.

@ec.europa.eu must #EndTheCageAge
