A few easy steps to support
big changes
1. Engage with your bank
Contacting your bank is a powerful way to drive change. Banks use customer deposits to make their loans and investments, so if you tell them that you don’t want your money to finance factory farming, they recognise the risk of losing customers. Together, our engagement has the potential to shift vast sums away from this industry.
2. Check your bank, and switch if you can
If you don’t want to risk your money financing this industry, switching banks is a strong statement - but they need to be told why you’re leaving to make a difference.
