The League's campaign urging the National Trust to abandon plans to allow the stag hunts to chase deer on their Holnicote Estate comes to a head at the National Trust AGM on Saturday 4th November.
Our Chief Executive Douglas Batchelor will be there proposing a resolution to stop this cruelty.

The League is organising a peaceful demonstration outside Cheltenham racecourse where the National Trust AGM will take place. We are meeting at Cheltenham racecourse at 9am on Saturday 4th November.

Are you Troubled by the Shoot?
The commercial shooting industry ruins the lives of thousands of people all over the UK. Whether it is a case of being forced to watch this bloody sport from your own home, having gamebirds trespass on your land, or having your children and pets terrified by the noise of gunshots, many people are troubled by their local shoot.
The League's new information leaflet 'Troubled by the Shoot?' outlines the legal rights of those affected by shooting.
