Fantastic news!  We are extremely pleased to announce that following pressure from animal welfare campaigners, Sainsbury's - one of the biggest   UK  supermarkets has announced that it will  improve 70 million lives a year by refusing to stock the most intensively farmed chickens.   

A huge step forward for animal welfare.  The supermarket giant has announced a move away from stocking factory farmed chickens across their entire chicken range and will instead adopt Freedom Food standard or equivalent as the minimum.
