Animal Free Research UK
Latest Reviews
There are so many ways to advance medical research without harming animals but, historically, very little money has been put into that area of research. Dr Hadwen Trust for Humane Research is at the forefront in bucking that trend. Every project which enhances human health & saves needless cruelty & loss of life to animals can only be a good thing. Hitchin should be very proud!

This organisation works tirelessly to further medical knowledge through research which does not involve the use of animals. They fund non-animal medical research projects for cancer, diabetes and Alzheimers to name just a few plus since 1970 they have funded over 140 projects to replace animal experiments in medical research. They help to save countless human and animal lives. What could be better than that!

The Dr Hadwen Trust are doing a magnificent job in bringing medical research into the 21st century. Their work is based on humane research which benefits humans and animals too. They have funded projects in some of the most advanced techniques relevant to humans including cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, asthma, kidney, heart and liver disease.
It is a fact that millions of animals are experimented on, in the UK (and worldwide) every year, yet it is widely known that animal tests are totally misleading because for every 10 tests which pass successfully on animals, 9 fail on humans. All different species can react differently to the same chemical and furthermore even results within one species can vary enormously when tests are applied to different breeds, ages and gender.
With such an appalling failure rate of medical research based on animal tests when applied to the human species it does not come as a surprise that in the UK there are 10000 deaths every year as a direct result of adverse drug reactions (BMJ 2004). Across Europe the figure is 197,000 deaths every year (European Commission, Brussels Memo, Dec 2008).
For medical research to be effective for humans we need it to be relevant to the human species and the Dr Hadwen Trust are leaders in such innovative research.

Thankfully, there are now many thousands of us, throughout the world, who hope and pray everyday of our lives for the end of animal experimentation. Thanks to the Dr Hadwen Trust, who funds more reliable medical research without the use of any animal, we can keep that dream alive ! Thank you, dear Walter Hadwen, for the creation of this Trust's foundations all those years ago for we ,like you, believe in a more compassionate and loving world for all those abused creatures who share our planet ! Thank you, too, to everyone within the Trust, who one day will make this wonderful man's dreams (and ours) come true !!

If you respect animals, but also want to help people resist and recover from illnesses, then the Dr Hadwen Trust for Humane Research is the charity that needs to be loved the most. The DHT has done more than any other charity in history to support medical research that doesn’t require the use of animals and is more human-relevant. That’s got to be the best thing ever for all animals, including us humans. With patrons such as Dame Judi Dench, Joanna Lumley, Brian May and the late Sir Patrick Moore, the DHT has raised the profile of this issue to the point that it has recently been able to create the first Professorial Chair in animal replacement science. The charity’s ongoing achievements are a testament to the determination of the DHT team to advance medical science without harming or exploiting animals. This is what I love about the Dr Hadwen Trust.

I love the Trust because they work so hard to stop animal suffering in laboratories, they're the respected & informed voice animals need to help them. They fund many projects all around the UK to prove the need for animals in laboratories has reached its end & can no longer be tolerated by the modern so called civilised world in its search for solutions to treatments/cures for health problems.

The Dr Hadwen Trust is a fabulous charity. Up and down the UK, in so-called 'scientific experiments', animals are being made to suffer for nothing. Not only are the outcomes of animal experiments frequently irrelevant to human conditions but ALTERNATIVES TO ANIMAL EXPERIMENTATION ARE NOW AVAILABLE IN VIRTUALLY EVERY FIELD OF MEDICAL RESEARCH. THANKS LARGELY TO THE DR HADWEN TRUST — must be the “best loved” charity in Hitchin — benefits humans AND animals!

As a vegan I hope that one day there will be no medical experiments conducted on animals. Meanwhile the
Dr Hadwen Trust funds and promotes new developmental techniques to replace the use of animals. It also has some highly respected patrons!

The Dr Hardwen Trust is commited to one of the best causes imaginable, the replacement of animal testing with humane research methods. They fully deserve any support available!

The Dr Hadwen Trust really care about people and finding cures for our ailments. They sponsor scientists doing research without experimenting on animals. This is what I really admire. The Trust doesn't tow the corrupt establishment line. They are prepared to shout out loud that vivisection is scientifically flawed in trying to find cures for human illness. And they are prepared to put their limited funding where their hearts lie - in the truth.

This charity provides essential scientific evidence to support the reduction and replacement of animals in medical research. Most people agree that the use of animals for tests in cosmetics is morally wrong but find it more difficult to argue the case for their use in medical research, the DHT clearly demonstrates the viability of humane research as a benefit to humans and animals alike. It has a refreshing ability to educate and inform without being agressive or patronising. The charity is totally committed to the cause and engages the public and supporters in a positive and fun way to raise funds which are largley used to sponsor hospital and university based projects to research, treat and cure numerous medical conditions. A worthy candidate for recognition!

Dr Hadwen Trust is stopping animals being tortured and traumatised needlessly in the name of 'science'.
I trust Dr Hadwen Trust to always do the right thing ethically by our fellow animals.
I agree that every creature feels pain and fear and I don't want my medicine to cure me when it has terrorised another animal.
I don't want my gain to be their pain.

As a passionate "sofa campaigner" for animal rights and welfare, I was delighted to discover the Dr Hadwen Trust some years ago. I was surprised that the leading body for alternative and humane research is on our doorstep, when charities are usually based in London in what is certain to be expensive and luxurious locations. The work done by the Trust has to be one of the most ethical and logical projects to support; when evidence proves animal experiments are both unreliable and dated when alternatives are available and endorsed by professional scientists. A wonderful example of their work is a recent project supported by Brian May at Parliament where the Trust and Queen Mary, University of London have joined forces to create the first Professorial Chair in animal replacement science at Blizard Institute in London: http://www.drhadwentrust.org/latest-news/news-and-views/post/172-rock-legend-backs-dht-at-parliament-for-worlds-first
Surely this massive leap forward for science, research and the ethical development of medical practice and treatments is enough to qualify this wonderful organisation for this award!!

The charity uses state of the art,innovative,modern technology to find vital cures for cancer, heart disease,Alzheimer's and a host of other diseases,potentially saving the lives of millions of animals who are currently brutally exploited,injured and killed in vain.It degrades each and every one of us to allow the status quo,ie. vivisection, to continue.Each individual Life is precious-whether it belongs to the human or the non-human animal.

This charity which was founded in 1970 does a fantatsic job in funding & promoting scientific procedures without the use of animals in medical research.
It is the UK's leading charity in this field and is internationally reknowned for the work it does and is funded only by charitable donations. It works by providing grants to Scientists at Hospitals, Universities and other research institutions to investigate a more humane / ethical approach by replacing animals in medical research and testing. Grants are only provided if the the work is of high scientific value and proves to have potential in the use of a more reliable human model instead of using animals.
They work very hard in promoting their cause and to date have awarded in excess of 140 grants for projects using human-related techniques in the medical research of Cancer, Diabetes and Asthma to name but a few.
For all of these reasons that is why I am member of DHT and a great admirer of the work they do.

The charity's main aims are to replace animal experiments by implementing ethical and more human-relevant methods of research such as in vitro models using human cells and tissue. People are becoming more aware that successful alternatives to animal testing are available today and this charity is helping to lead the way and I highly recommend them for this reason.

any charity that helps animals always has my number one vote but this charity is striving to get alternatives to animala in testing etc.i believe all animal testing is wrong whatever the out come no living creature should have to suffer to save another especially when there are many alternatives.....my vote Dr Hadwen Trust :)

This is a small charity funding essential medical research using the latest advances in technology to replace animals and thereby increase the likelihood of more accurate results and better treatment outcomes for sufferers of illnesses such as asthma, to name but one. It has an excellent website with more information about the research projects. It "punches above its weight" in terms of its very modest income and I believe it should be receiving far more funding to support its vital and compassionate work.

I am proud to support the Dr Hadwen Trust, working to secure a future in which no animal will be abused in the name of science. The charity demonstrates that medical progress can actually be enhanced by the elimination of inapposite research using animals. By pledging your support, you could help the DHT fund even more projects into human health-related research which will benefit all of us, as well as replacing the use of animals in experiments.
