28-03-2010 Successful Spring Conference kicks off Animals Count election campaign

On 27 March, Animals Count kicked off its General Election campaign with the Fourth Party (Spring) Conference at the Finsbury Library in Islington.

After a word of welcome by leader Jasmijn de Boo, the 2009 Financial overview was discussed, followed by a constructive discussion on the draft manifesto. The members were impressed with the proposed manifesto document, which will officially be launched on 17th April at 5pm at Housmans Bookshop on Caledonian Road.

Our visibility in Islington will increase over the next few weeks. We are planning to hold a free dog consultation event for dog owners and anyone interested in animal care, on Sunday 25th April.

Deputy Leader Richard Deboo (pictured) closed the conference with a very inspiring speech. The transcript can be read here.

We are looking forward to a successful and enjoyable election campaign. If you want to help by distributing leaflets, please get in touch. Thank you very much.
