Glen Carolyn Read is a retired registered obstetric nurse who is passionate about animal welfare, care of the elderly and mental health.
One of her passions is banning live export of livestock and increasing the quality of living conditions for farm animals as well as domestic pets.
She applauds the effort of World Animal Protection to prohibit the dreadful practices of bear baiting and bile extracting, the use of animals such as elephants and monkeys as objects for people’s amusement and all other endeavours in which the society is involved, particularly in countries overseas where perhaps there is a lack of education.
She finds World Animal Protection newsletters, which carry positive stories of rescues to be inspirational and help raise awareness of the public. However, people also need to be exposed to the horrific photos of maltreatment of such animals! Glen feels education is the key, starting at a very young age.

Animals did not ask to be born into this cruel money-driven world and as responsible citizens who hopefully do know right from wrong and hopefully realise that the ‘mighty dollar’ is not the key to happiness, we have an obligation to protect this wonderful planet and its many incredible creatures!
All across the globe, our supporters have protected millions of animals and helped people understand the importance of animal protection.
You don’t have to include a gift to World Animal Protection, but we hope you will consider it, after providing for your loved ones. Every animal deserves to live a life worth living.
