Our mission is to play a leading role in funding, advancing and developing widespread support for non-animal replacement research and so make a major, practical contribution to the cessation of animal experiments.

The Dr Hadwen Trust is the UK's leading medical research charity that funds and promotes exclusively non-animal techniques to replace animal experiments. Our vital work benefits humans with the development of more relevant and reliable science whilst also benefiting laboratory animals. We believe that excellence in medical research can and should be pursued without animal experiments. Registered charity number 261096 established 1970. The Dr Hadwen Trust is internationally recognised as a leading authority on replacing animal experiments and actively promotes the concept and practice of non-animal research through publications, workshops, debates and the media.
