More information.

The group organises regular demos/leafleting outside the stadium, so, if you can't make it to this particular demo, but would be interested in taking part in future events, please contact Wolverhampton Greyhound Action at wolvesga@yahoo.co.uk or on 07981 896228.

At present, demos at Monmore Green are taking place about every two weeks, but WGA intend to increase this to weekly, once sufficient support is forthcoming.

If you don't live anywhere near Wolverhampton, but would like to help organise/take part in regular demos outside your local greyhound stadium, please get in touch with Greyhound Action - info@greyhoundaction.org.uk - for advice and information.

Demonstrations/leafleting already takes place at several of the 30 major British dog tracks on a regular basis and the ultimate aim of Greyhound Action is to have a presence outside all of them at least once a week. This has proved to be an extremely effective method of campaigning, which has led to a substantial reduction in attendances at greyhound stadiums where frequent demos take place, pushing those dog tracks ever nearer to their ultimate closure.

If you are not able to take part indemonstrations, please consider sending Greyhound Action a donation to support this national public education campaign, which can only be kept going through the generosity of those supporters who provide funds to cover the high cost of producing and distributing large amounts of leaflets and posters. Cheques/POs should be made payable to Greyhound Action and sent to Greyhound Action, PO Box 127, Kidderminster, DY10 3UZ, England.
