PETITIONS   
The Dr Hadwen Trust has launched a couple of petitions. The first has been initiated on the No.10 Downing Street website at http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/animaltesting/, calling on the government to publish and commit to a timetable for the total replacement of animal experiments with more modern, ethical and scientifically reliable non-animal techniques. Please visit the site to support this call.

The Dr Hadwen Trust have also initiated a Europe-wide petition launched in 11 languages: support their call for urgent action to replace animal experiments www.endeuanimaltests.org

The Dr Hadwen Trust is the UK's leading medical research charity funding exclusively non-animal research techniques to replace animal experiments, benefiting people and animals.

"Ask the experimenters why they experiment on animals, and the answer is: 'because the animals are like us.' Ask the experimenters why it is morally OK to experiment on animals, and the answer is: 'Because the animals are not like us.' Animal experimentation rests on a logical contradiction." - Professor Charles R.Magel
