You will hopefully have noticed from previous media releases that the HSA does so much more than support sabs out in the hunting field.
Due to our singular work in the hunting fields, we collected evidence which has led to over twenty successful court cases against hunts since 2019. Our groups also use covert cameras and drones to protect animals and catch wildlife criminals in action. No-one else is doing this.
We recently produced a sixteen-page booklet entitled Witness The End Of Hunting, outlining the changes we think the Hunting Act needs to make it genuinely fit for purpose. Based on our sixty years’ experience, the booklet contains detailed legislative suggestions and equips MPs with the facts they will need when arguing in parliament. To date we are the only anti hunt organisation to have done this.
We also hosted a major event in Parliament – assisted by those lovely people at LUSH – which saw over a hundred people in parliament receive a copy of the booklet and hear impassioned speeches from MPs, celebrities and the HSA on how and why the act must be strengthened.
Others talk, raise petitions, hassle for more social media clicks while we focus on actions which will save lives.
None of our work comes for free, be it helping sab groups buy and maintain their vehicles, providing radios, sourcing hunting horns or covert cameras, holding events OR producing booklets. It all costs money.
What we don’t spend money on is offices and wages. All our work is done by volunteers, be that in the hunting fields or in parliament: no-one is paid a penny.
The HSA will continue to fight for all wildlife in every way we can. Please help us by making a donation today.
We are the only organisation that works directly in the field to save wildlife through direct action.
