On may 26th Activists from all over the uk will converge on newcastle for a march and rally against newcastle university

Following a Freedom of Information request it can be revealed that Newcastle University used over 22,000 animals in research between1st January 2011 to 31st December 2011. Newcastle Uni is also one of the few Unis that still use primates in tests.

We will meet at newcastle centre for life at 12Pm for a set off at 12.30
we will march and make our voices heard as we march to the university

at newcastle university we will hold a rally at the fiance department of the university Kingsgate where speeches will take place

Participants will then march to the labs to hold a minute's silence and light 22 candles for the 22,000+ animals used in experiments by the Uni last year.

The protest will call for the end of animal experimentation at Newcastle University, calling it both unscientific and cruel.

Speakers: More to be confirmed but so far we got

Dr Adrian Stallwood from Animal Aid

Dr Victoria Martindale

And more to be confirmed

Please join us on this day :

Inaccuracy

04.05.2012 21:40

The 'approximately 3 million animals' statistic is misleading. In fact in 2010 it was 3,724,726, which is whole lot more.

Why not put the true figure or say 'approx 3.7 million'.

I've been waiting to hear a fuss kick up about this for quite some time. I've made all my classmates aware of the facts. Pleasingly, I found that hardly anyone supports the animal killing.
