Greyhound Track Campaign Groups

All track protest groups are fully independent
​
A presence to create awareness at each track is an essential part of the anti racing movement.
Education is key in deterring people from funding cruelty.


Education and awareness doesn't have to be carried out in a uniform manner. All we ask is that each group keeps within the law, to prevent the anti racing movement being damaged.

While one organiser may prefer to peacefully hand leaflets out alone or with a friend, another organiser may prefer to arrange a large protest that makes lots of noise to grab attention of the punters.
At Caged, we believe that there is no right or wrong, providing that an educational message is sent to the punters attending the track using leaflets and banners with factual up to date information about the greyhound racing industry as a whole.

Caged Nationwide are proud to supply materials to dedicated campaign groups in the UK and Ireland. It's the job of a protest group to provide the punters with the facts. On an average night outside the stadium, one protest group can hand out approximately 500 greyhound awareness leaflets. 
The intention, is to guide the punters into researching the cruelty, (much of which can be substantiated on our website), helping them to make a well informed decision  before returning to a track and funding cruelty.


Some of the tracks to which we supply materials; 
Belle Vue
Newcastle
Sunderland
Pelaw Grange
Henlow
Wallyford
Shawfield
Poole
Peterborough
Kinsley
Romford
Perry Barr


If you already organise a track protest, or would like to organise one and would like to apply for some free materials, please contact sandi@cagednw.co.uk
You can see all of our brand new designs on our 'posters' page


Thinking About Starting a Demo at your local Track?
​
Read on, to see what Jacqui from Shawfield Demo Group says


It might seem daunting to start it yourself, will people turn up?  Will you be standing there alone with a banner?  But you don’t need to worry about that, if you start a Demo, people will come along, they are waiting for someone to take that initiative.  

After 10 years of being involved in Greyhound Rescue I realised that if I don’t confront the source nothing will ever change.  I decided that if no one else was going to start a Demo at my local track then I was going to have to do it myself.

I contacted CAGED, who offered to supply me with materials.  CAGED have been a continuous support and I’m proud to do justice to the materials they have sent us.

I wanted to do everything right, because it was for the Greyhounds.  I contacted my local community Police, told them who we were and what we would be doing, I asked trusted friends to pass the word that the Demo’s would be starting and asked people to contact me.

I set a date and we did our first Demo, and people turned up, they wanted to make a difference too. Our Demo’s have been going 7 months now, every Saturday we are there, being a voice for the Greyhounds. We now have a dedicated bunch of “regulars” who are coming along week in week out, holding banners and handing out leaflets.  I couldn’t do it without them and we are in it for the long haul, as long as the track exists we will be there.

Whether there are two of you or you or ten of you, it doesn’t matter. You can tell the public what is actually going on, it’s not just a cheap night out, the Greyhounds are suffering for nothing more than entertainment. 

Many people have no idea about the other side of Greyhound racing, the industry wants to hide it. Some people won’t listen, but others will, they won’t go back and they will tell other people why. Slowly we can change peoples minds, even if it’s one person at a time, it matters.

If you want to make a difference start a Demo at your local track or betting shop and be a real voice for the Greyhounds.

Are you interested in joining an existing protest group but are a little unsure of what to expect?

Read what Caroline and Jo have to say after joining the Poole Protest for the first time


As someone who is passionate about animals yet anxious around humans and in social situations and new groups... I am SO GLAD I jumped out of my comfort zone and joined PAGE!
My main concern about joining was approaching people without enough facts as I find it hard to store all the info, but Sandi assured me that even just being there to boost numbers, show support and hold a banner I would be a great addition to the team.
She wasn’t wrong! And after a few minutes I’d forgotten why I’d put it off for so long. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly, and at the end of the first demo I’d decided to give up that couple of hours every week for the cause. I’ve made wonderful friends and found a new purpose that I needed more than even I realised!
I highly recommend that anyone thinking about joining.. stops thinking and just takes the leap!
Caroline



I joined PAGE after attending Greyhound in Need walks with our rescue lurcher, which resulted in us falling in love with them and adopting Tommy, an ex-racer, ourselves. I knew very little about the racing industry, and got more of an insight from our friends there. I joined PAGE so I could find out more, and as a result have attended two, very different demos. The first was a remembrance cube event in Poole, which was an unusual event in that it was silent! I was worried about getting facts wrong when speaking to people, but Sandi and Amanda did all the talking and that put me at ease. I could also choose which placard to hold. This Saturday was my first stadium demo and I attended with Tommy, and my daughter. Her friend attends most demos and I was put at ease that we would all be looked after. Tommy didn't race at Poole but I was given advice on what may upset him, such as tannoys etc, so we could protect him. I found it easier to talk to the public about Tommy and I'm proud that we participated to spread awareness and to show how lovely these dogs are as pets and in the community. Everyone helped us feel looked after and involved, and my daughter was proud to be tally-keeper for supportive honks from motorists. Although we aren't able to come to every demo, we will attend as many as we can, and Sandi kindly gave me leaflets to pass on. If you feel strongly enough about the racing industry, there is a role for you at a demo!
Jo


We hope these testimonials will help you to understand that attending a protest can be very rewarding.

Special thanks to Jaqcui, Caroline and Jo for sharing their experiences with us.
