Quick question on The Arthritis Society
Hi All,
I live in the UK but a friend has asked me to sponsor a walk she's doing for The Arthritis Society which is a Canadian charity.
I was wondering if anyone knows if the charity support or carry out animal testing? I can't tell from the website and am not sure how to find out.
Thanks
Becca

I'm not sure how worldwide this is, but PETA has a helpful list!

Edit:
- I totally just read "UK" and completely ignored the Canadian part. Which is sad because I'm Canadian, haha.
- That PETA link I provided doesn't seem to have the lists it used to, just redirects you to this link: http://www.humaneseal.org/search.cfm
- According to Humane Seal link, The Arthritis Society in Canada does fund animal experiments.

The problem with your gene pool is that there's no lifeguard.

Hahah at 'major post fail'!
Thanks a lot for the info, I feel bad as I contributed to it last year, without thinking.
At least I know now.

No problem.Unfortunately the majority of charities contribute to animal testing due to the nature of the research required. I get pretty excited when I find one, especially one that is relatively well known, that doesn't!

just for info, according to Animal Aid's list here, the UK Arthritic Association don't fund animal testing.
