Posters to download

You can choose either a plain text poster or a colour poster.

The plain text poster doesn't use very much ink in your printer. When the plain text poster page loads, simply click on "print" in your browser menu. If you wish, you can also use this version to make cheap mono photocopies and distribute around your school or neighbourhood.
TIP: If printing out the plain text poster it is more eye-catching on YELLOW paper.

The colour poster uses more ink but looks far more effective if used on noticeboards etc. When the colour poster page loads you need to copy the image first and paste it into a simple image or photo programme before sizing and printing it.

HERE are some ideas for distributing your posters!

TAKE A POSTER TO YOUR LOCAL VET AND ASK THEM IF THEY CAN DISPLAY IT IN THE SURGERY WAITING ROOM.
SCHOOL / COLLEGE NOTICE BOARDS are also perfect spots.
Also ... ANIMAL RESCUE CENTERS, RIDING SCHOOLS, COMMUNITY HALLS, PET SHOPS, HEALTH FOOD SHOPS and ETHICAL TRADING SHOPS.

What Else Can You Do To Help?

A firework code to help animals and birds.
During firework celebrations, only buy fireworks that don't pose a threat to wildlife. I.e. nothing that bangs or screams and no aerial fireworks like rockets or starbursts.
If you have lots of trees in your garden then it's not a good idea to have any kind of aerial type fireworks. Birds are quietly roosting in trees all around you at night. Just because you can't hear or see them doesn't mean they don't exist after sunset!
Never allow your pet outside during firework celebrations. If you have animals in hutches outside and can't move them indoors, then cover the hutches with heavy blankets. This will help reduce the noise and the animal should also remain undisturbed by flashing lights. Keep cats and dogs indoors, close windows and blinds and create an audible diversion for them, like turning on some music - this should be reasonably loud but soothing sounds to try and divert the animal's attention from the outside).
If available in your country, get your cat or dog microchipped. As we have already mentioned many cats and dogs run away from home in a panic when there are fireworks around and tend to get lost. With a microchip implant it's far easier to reunite an animal with its owner.
Keep an eye out for animals and birds in shock that may have fallen from trees. In most cases human intervention will add to the animals distress and we recommend you keep a watchful distance from the animal / bird and make sure no one else goes near it. If the animal continues to behave in a shocked state for more than three or four hours or is clearly injured then you should alert your local animal welfare organization as soon as possible. They will send someone to investigate further.
If you are aware of any incidents involving the suffering of any animals through the use of fireworks then please use our contact page
