Nottingham Animal Coalition, who meet at the #SumacCentre, have made GBN News!
Council pulls snail racing event and apologises after activists express concern for animal welfare
The Nottingham Animal Coalition branded the planned activity 'desperate' in a Facebook post
"Do you have any idea the pain a snail endures to be ripped off the floor from their trail?" they wrote. "And you're encouraging people to do this?"
The protesters also detailed potential health hazards for young attendees, warning wild snails and slugs can harbour parasites.

What a great result. Well done everyone.
It's worth noting that both the city council and the county council have adopted charters for animal rights/welfare. Recognizing that it is not always easy to find them on the the council's website, Nottingham Animal Rights keep online copies here:
