1 We need you to write to every single customerof HLS Click here for the Companies details. Don’t let them sidetrack you with talk of ‘extremism’. The issue at hand here is that things have not changed inside HLS and the report contains all the evidence we need. Please also if you can send letters to the companies’ HQ if abroad.

2 Support the demos on the SHAC on Tour week7th - Fri 11th August, Click here for times and places. If you live near where one of these demos is taking place then please join us. We need numbers. If you can organise your own demos against some of Huntingdon’s customers then please do so. Please try and get the press to your demos and make sure that you have adequate copies of the ‘Inside HLS 2005’ report to give to the press.

You can search for your nearest customers on our new online HLS customer database at

3 Money. We rarely ask for money but we are asking for it now. We will be mailing the ‘Inside HLS 2005’ report to every MP and are printing an initial 5,000 copies of the report. There will also be numerous demos happening not just in the UK but across the world with SHAC UK members in attendance to get the report and its findings across to HLS’s customers wherever they be. This is expensive but very, very effective. Wherever a major HLS customer is in the world, be that America to Israel, France to Switzerland, we will be there.

4 Please ring and write to all the suppliers listed here. All their previous excuses are now dead in the water. How can they justify supplying a company where workers do this: “ I saw co-workers grab the dogs by the scruff, shout and swear at them, swing them by the scruff and slap them. ”

5 Please write to your MP and if possible make an appointment to visit him at his local surgery. If you don’t know who your local MP is then you can find them at: http://www.upmystreet.com/commons/l/
All you need to do is put your postcode in.
Again do not let them divert the conversation on to ‘extremism’ or their views on animal experiments. Keep it to the ‘Inside HLS 2005’ report where the law has been clearly broken many times. What is your MP going to do about it?

6 Write to the Home Office in the same fashion as you write to your MP keeping it focused on the’ Inside HLS’ report. If you are not happy with their reply, then write again, keeping it tightly focused on the report. You pay these peoples’ wages so if you are not happy with their response then ask again.
