The Farm Animal Welfare Council

The Farm Animal Welfare Council (FAWC) was a UK organization established to advise on the well-being of farm animals, ensuring they are treated humanely and their needs are met. It provided expert guidance on best practices and influenced legislation to improve animal care. Although it was operational until 2010, its recommendations helped shape policies promoting ethical farming and responsible animal stewardship. Essentially, FAWC worked to balance agricultural productivity with compassion for farm animals, advocating for their welfare based on scientific understanding and ethical considerations.
