The CAFT Connection

 

The anti-fur wing of N.A.R.A. is CAFT Ireland.


 



Here is some information about the campaign, so you can familiarize yourself with our sister group:

 

The Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade (Ireland) was set up in 2005, and is based in Dublin.

 

To date, we have:

Organised over 400 demonstrations

Given out over 200,000 leaflets

Distributed over 300 information packs

Organised annual Fur Farm awareness days and protests at Ireland's largest fur farm in Laois

In 2009, for the first time in the history of Irish anti-fur campaigning, we organised a 'Fur Farm Exposé Tour', in which we traveled to every fur-farming county to leaflet the towns and protest outside the actual farms. This was a very effective tool in highlighting the issue, resulting in a lot of newspaper and radio coverage.

Produced a campaign video on the issue, thanks to anonymously received footage exposing Irish fur farms, which can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/naracampaigns

Sent out 109 fur farm exposé packs to to various TD's, Ministers, SPCA's, radio stations and newspapers. This resulted in a number of Irish politicians getting onboard with the campaign, and an investigation on the fur farms being launched.

Leafleted and petitioned outside the Dept. of Agriculture every week for 3 years, until a phase-ban on fur farming was confirmed by the Irish government on Sat. 10th October 2009
