Merseyside Animal Rights is a local voluntary run group which campaigns against any form of animal exploitation in the Merseyside area and beyond. Under normal circumstances we meet the first Tuesday of the month at 7.30pm at Next To Nowhere www.liverpoolsocialcentre.org 96 Bold Street, ring the while bell to get in, however please see our statement below regarding the current situation. We campaign and raise awareness around industries that use and abuse animals including the meat, dairy, egg and fur industries, as well as the use of animals for ‘sport’ or entertainment, particularly focusing on local issues. New people and ideas are welcome at our meetings and in our group.
