Take a stand for race horses
Posted on the 22nd March 2016
For those horrified by the deaths of seven horses at the 2016 Cheltenham Festival, please make a pledge to help with Animal Aid's Horse Racing Awareness Week.
This takes place from 3 to 9 April – the week leading up to the country’s most famous race: the Grand National.
Please order our popular Sanctuary not Cruelty leaflets to distribute to friends, family and in your local neighborhood. The Sanctuary not Cruelty initiative asks those who are concerned about the National to support specialist sanctuaries that rescue horses – including ex-racehorses – instead of betting on horse races.
You can also join our protests taking place on 9 April at the gates of Liverpool’s Aintree Racecourse and at Channel 4 in London.
- Order a Horse Racing Awareness Week pack.
- Order bulk copies of our Sanctuary not Cruelty leaflets to distribute.
- Order a ‘Don’t Back the Grand National’ T-shirt from us. Cost £7.95 (plus p&p).
- Come to one of our demonstrations on 9 April at Aintree or London.
- Find out more information about our campaign by visiting our Stop Killing Horses website.
- Watch our film about Hillside Sanctuary, which rescues horses, including ex-race horses
