Dear John,
We may be some weeks away from the festive season, but the exploitation of animals for festive 'entertainment' has already begun. Right now, event organisers around the country are booking cruel companies who 'hire' out animals like props, to appear at events in shopping malls, city centres, Christmas markets and on high streets.
Reindeer, camels, penguins, owls and other animals can be 'booked' for a local festive event, for a mere few hundred pounds. For the profit of these companies, the animals are forced to endure long hours on the road, to be hauled out at events, all to entertain crowds.
BUT with your help, work to end this cruelty has already begun.

As the Festive Events Campaigner I have been busy researching these events and contacting the organisers, asking them to cancel the animal exploitation from their event.
But to really have an impact for animals, I need your help.
If you know of an event taking place near you which is using animals, report it to me here: https://www.freedomforanimals.org.uk/forms/report-festive-events-using-live-animals

Please provide as much detail as possible - where it is taking place, when, which animals will be used.. as much as you can!
I will also be sharing actions with you in the coming days that you can take to persuade event organisers to cancel animal cruelty from their events.
I share here what are the main concerns for animals used in these events, so please do take a read.
Thank you.

P.S. The festive season is approaching and with it, an increase in animal exploitation. Reindeers, penguins and other animals face months on the road being used as props for human entertainment. Please help me stop this cruelty by taking action today!
