Dear Reader,

We hope you have been enjoying Animal Welfare Snapshot, which TAWC has delivered each fortnight since June 2021. We wish to inform you that due to changes in the internal operations of TAWC, Animal Welfare Snapshot will no longer be delivered fortnightly. The final edition of Animal Welfare Snapshot will be on 10th August 2023. TAWC will continue to operate, and we look forward to continuing to work with many of you. Additionally, TAWC will continue to publish TAWC Talks. To stay updated and receive notifications about new episodes of TAWC Talks, simply sign up here.

Regards,
The TAWC Executive
