Say NO to Camden Lab: November 2008

What the problem is

In 2007 the UK Government sold public land situated behind the British Library in Somers Town, Camden, London, UK - to a consortium made up of the Medical Research Council, University College London, Cancer Research UK and the Wellcome Trust, for them to build a potentially high risk UK centre for medical research and innovation. Many local residents had hoped the land would be used to build new affordable housing and facilities for the community.

Residents across the borough are horrified by such a dangerous, largely secretive establishment being build, and are fiercely opposing the development.

The development has also caused outrage from residents across the London Boroughs as well as nation wide, who object strongly to the cruel and outdated use of animals in medical/scientific experimentation.

3M ANIMALS TORTURED IN THE UK

Peta.org.uk

Last year, more than 3 million animals were tortured and killed in the UK in cruel animal tests. Daisy's story is just one of them.

As a puppy, Daisy was sold to a commercial testing facility and confined to a barren cage. Poisonous chemicals were mixed into her food, and she grew sicker and sicker. Eventually, her small body gave up, and she died a painful and lonely death.

Your donation today could help eradicate the abuse of animals in laboratories as well as help end the suffering of many more animals around the world. It may be too late for poor Daisy, but it's not yet too late for other animals who will suffer similar fates. Please give generously and help end animals tests!
