How is the Dr Hadwen Trust’s work different from other medical research charities?
Unlike most other charities, the Dr Hadwen Trust is opposed to all animal experiments both on ethical and scientific grounds. We believe animal experiments are inadequate, and that faster medical progress will be made by developing and utilising advanced, non-animal research methods. The Dr Hadwen Trust is very unusual in that it works to exclusively promote and develop non-animal techniques to replace animals. We have one of the strictest ethical funding criteria in the world, and we will not fund research that is conducted on living animals, or animal cells and tissues. All the projects we fund aim to both replace animal experiments and further medical research, thus helping both people and animals.
