Kate Werner

Kate Werner is PETA’s Senior Campaigns Manager who, over the last 6 years, has overseen the UK campaigns team to many victories such as ending Jet2Holiday’s promotion of cruel dolphin prisons and Bristol University ceasing to conduct the forced swim test on rats and mice. Kate has a degree in psychology and a Masters in Primate Biology and Conservation. With over 15 years experience working in animal rights, Kate has led campaigns and investigations on issues ranging from animal farming and foie gras imports to whale hunting in the Faroe Islands, and pretty much everything in between. She regularly appears on TV and radio to talk about PETA’s campaigns and investigations and takes part in demos and actions to achieve change for animals. She is guardian to a beautiful mutt, Diesel, who she rescued from the streets of Cyprus, and whose claim to fame is appearing in the newspaper on the lap of PETA founder, Ingrid Newkirk.
