We believe in providing premium, responsibly-sourced meats, while fostering a sense of belonging and pride among our patrons.

Our support for REAL meat stands on 3 pillars.

1. Quality Meats, Every Time

We commit to promoting only Independent Local Butchers who provide the highest quality, ethically sourced meats.

Independent butchers which meticulously select, prepare, and present cuts that meet the standards of both taste and nutrition.

2. Community Connection

We aim to create a warm, inviting space where supporters of real meat can gather to share stories, recipes, and a genuine love for good food.

We actively support local initiatives and events, reinforcing the place of real meat as a cornerstone of community life.

3. Empowering our Local Partners

We aim to champion local farmers, butchers and farm shops, forging lasting relationships that ensure sustainable practices and fair compensation. By prioritizing local sourcing, we contribute to the economic vitality of our region.

At Campaign For Real Meat, we don't just advocate real meat; we cultivate experiences, foster relationships, and strengthen communities.

With 60% of independent butchers disappearing from our towns and villages over the last 25 years, these establishments are fast becoming an 'endangered species'.

Together, we can strive to rekindle the spirit of the independent butcher, and support these most precious bastions of our British culture and heritage - one cut at a time.
