5 Ways to Fight Burberry

Looking for more ways to help? Here are the top five ways to get Burberry to change their stance on their use of fur:


Sample Letter

Dear Burberry,

I am writing to ask you to stop using real fur in your designs.

Burberry's use of fur is not acceptable in the 21st century. There are many luxurious, high-quality faux-fur alternatives available. A switch to faux fur would spare the lives of countless animals.

No compassionate consumer would consider the fur trade to be "ethical", and thankfully for animals, more than 93 per cent of British consumers state they would never wear or buy fur. Modern designers like Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood and Tommy Hilfiger have all taken the fur-free pledge. I hope that you will do everything in your power to ensure Burberry does the same.

Sincerely,

Your Name

  • Sign the petition and ask Burberry to stop using fur forever!

  • Call Burberry's headquarters in London on +44 (0) 207 968 0000 and voice your concerns about their use of fur in their designs.

  • Please e-mail Burberry CEO Angela Ahrendts, Burberry CFO Stacey Cartwright, Burberry Creative Director Christopher Bailey and Burberry Secretary Michael Mahony and let them know that you don't agree with the company's use of fur. Feel free to adapt the sample letter we have below, but remember that personalised letters are more effective.
