Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've had sleepless nights ever since I found out about 'bear bile farming' and I had to do something to try and raise not only funds towards trying to stop the barbarism but also raise awareness because not enough people know what's going on.

On Facebook I came across a wonderful woman called Jill Robinson who has dedicated her life to building her charity Animals Asia who promote animal welfare across Vietnam and China. Without getting too graphic one of their main campaigns is all about stopping the barbaric 'bear bile farming'. Live bears are captured from the wild and put into what can only be described as a torture chamber. A small iron cage where some can't even stand up. They have catheters inserted into their gall bladder which extracts their bile and is used in household products and medicine - totally unnecessary as there are plenty of alternatives they can use! They are fed gruel and not given enough to eat or enough water with no freedom to be bears. In my opinion, it is the worst form of animal cruelty out there and it's happening right now to thousands of bears. Jill has bear sanctuaries in China and Vietnam where she and her amazing team have saved over 600 bears but we can't stop until this shocking unspeakable practice is banned and ends for good.

This is why I am putting on a comedy night (FREE entry) at The Seven Stars in Dinton, Buckinghamshire (10 minutes from Aylesbury) on Sunday 16th July from 6.30pm to raise funds for this amazing charity. All the funds raised will go towards the great work Animals Asia do in working towards ending bear bile farming for good and huge progress is being made but more needs to be done! 

There will be a few different stand-up comedians to entertain you plus food will be available, a raffle and an auction.

I very much hope to see you there and if you can't make it any donations would be very much appreciated! Thank you for reading

Until the cruelty ends....
