Please object to plans for a huge ‘free-range’ egg farm in Kent
Urgent: Deadline for objections is 16 January
Fridays Ltd has submitted new plans for a huge ‘free-range’ egg farm to be situated in Chainhurst, Kent. This could hold more than 190,000 hens across three industrial-sized sheds.
Animal Aid investigators visited another much smaller unit, Combwell Farm, operated by Fridays and uncovered some terrible conditions. Footage showed hens with extensive feather loss, injured birds and several dead and decomposing birds left among the living. We dread to think what conditions would be like on a farm three times this size.
Join us in objecting! Please download the letter, tweak to personalise and send to the provided email address. Visit our website for full details.
Local residents have also put together an objection toolkit on the WeLoveChainhurst.co.uk page.
Local objections are most effective but all count.
Thank you,
