We're the country's most exciting animal rights Charity, a grassroots organisation who believe that the power to help animals lies with people like you and me - and we don't have to turn into 'tree huggers' to make changes.
SfA take on Scottish issues that other animal welfare organisations aren't. In 2009 we are tackling issues such as Ritual Slaughter - a subject that others are (not surprisingly) scared to confront for fear of controversy; and other unfashionable issues which have the most detrimental impact on the welfare of Scotland's animals but are often overlooked.
Everybody has a right to get involved to help our country's animals - so we make a real effort to reach out to people and communities generally excluded by other animal groups.
Most recently we've stopped the Harvey Nichols UK chain selling foie gras, rescued our Staffordshire Bull Terrier mascot Bella (pictured above), liberated Hugo the pig-nosed turtle from a nightclub hell, convinced several Scottish stores to ditch fur, set a legal precedent regarding the labelling of Religious Slaughter products in Scotland, shimmied at burlesque workshops to raise funds, given school talks. In May 2009 we stopped the giant Glenrath Farms egg producers from expanding, something they said couldn't be done but together we proved them wrong. Campaigned against circuses with animals in Glasgow. And much more.
We've been in existence since 2002. Formerly known as 1World Scotland we relaunched bigger and better as a result of our numerous successes and the growth of public interest in our work. With your help we'll be making even bigger waves in the forthcoming year.
Scotland for Animals is a charity registered in Scotland. Number SCO39109
