Anti-Fur Week - November 13th - 20th
The march and rally marks the start of this year's national Anti-Fur Week
which will take place between November 13th and 20th. During this week there
will be fur protests and actions, info stalls and other events, please contact
us if you would like to take part or if you would like to organise your own
event or help out with your local group during the week of action.
Please take part in Anti Fur Week, even if you do one thing during the week,
it will add to the success of the week, and will put more pressure on the
fur industry. Please let us know if you are planning anything so we can let
others know, and send any report and photos afterwards for the website.
Among the things you can do are
hold a protest at a shop near you which sells fur, though sometimes they can
be persuaded to remove fur items beforehand. There maybe coordinated protests
against a fashion chain with a branch in your town, contact us or keep watching
the site for details.
hold an information stall in your town, contact us for ideas and info material.
write a letter to local and national press, highlighting the cruelty of the
fur trade. See our fact sheets on the website side panel for ideas.
Please keep an eye on the website for developments and start preparing now
the week of action.
