A sign that reads 'pen 11' nailed to a slaughterhouse wall

For nearly 20 years, we've filmed inside slaughterhouses and shown that 'humane slaughter' is a sham. Our footage bears witness to each animal's final moments, encouraging people to go vegan and successfully lobbying for mandatory CCTV in slaughterhouses across the UK.

Our two-year investigation uncovered the stark reality for unwanted horses and ponies. Our footage was released exclusively on BBC One's Panorama.

Carrying out investigations on behalf of farmed animals is a powerful tool for exposing the reality of their suffering, making truth a catalyst for change. We've visited more than ten facilities where animal suffering is their every day reality.

The shooting industry factory farms around 60 million pheasants and partridges each year. We’ve conducted close to 20 visits of these ‘game bird’ farms and found cruelty and neglect at every single one.

Thanks to your support, we've been able to conduct investigations across England, shedding light on the lived experience of animals. This page will be updated as we continue fighting for animal freedom.

We're bringing our investigations to new audiences through a powerful collaboration with Project Livestream, designed to turn passive social media scrolling into direct action for animals - and you can get involved.
