Thank you to all our donors, we have met our crowdfunding goal!

 

Our Vegan TV Ad on Channel 4 Now!

 

You’ve done it! With your help, we reached our target of £40,000.

Thank you so much for following and supporting our Takeaway the Meat crowdfunder.

This means our vegan message will be broadcast to 18 million people on Channel 4 and its associated networks!

This will have a huge impact, helping to show meat eaters the correlation between animal cruelty and what is on their plate.

Thank you to everyone who donated, shared, or spread the word about our crowdfunding campaign. This is one of the biggest opportunities that Viva! has ever had to reach the UK public on such a huge scale. It could not have happened without you. If you haven’t donated yet, don’t worry, there’s still time! The more funds we raise, the more people we will reach on national TV.

Look out for our ad across the Channel 4 network on channels including Channel 4, E4, Dave, Film4, and more.

Below are the confirmed spots for the rest of August. The ad will be on TV until September, 17th and we will be updating the below list regularly.

  • Countdown – August 30, 14:20 (Channel 4)
  • Secret Headquarters – August 30, 20:30 (FilmFour)

Help us reach another 18 million people with Viva!’s ‘Takeaway the Meat‘ TV ad

Based on the effusive praise Viva! received following our award-winning Takeaway the Meat advert (which reached a staggering 16 million people on TV alone), we are back with even bigger plans to get the UK talking!

We are launching a second crowdfunder to raise £40,000 to show the advert to (drum roll please) 18 million people on Channel 4 and its associated channels! Donations to the crowdfunder will be matched, so for every £1 donated, the advert will receive £2. 

The reception to the advert last year was overwhelmingly supportive and we were inundated with messages. ‘ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!! Well done and during a meat cookery show too! Pure genius’ was just one of hundreds of comments. Many comments were from meat-eaters who, when confronted with the realities of what’s on their plate, took the time to think more about what they were consuming. We garnered huge media coverage, including the advert being shared by the world’s biggest online newspaper, The Daily Mail and The Grocer. This reached far beyond UK media outlets and was covered on the most visited German online media platform Die Bild, Australian media, and more.

Naturally we were extremely pleased to have had some backlash as well. And we were honoured to rank as the second most complained about advert in 2022. Anyone guessing what adverts have provoked huge number of complaints might speculate along the lines of adult themes like sex, violence, discrimination… 

Wrong. In 2022, aside from an advert about women’s periods (how shocking), the second most complained about advert was Takeaway the Meat, which simply showed that meat eaters are doing just that, eating animals. 

Viva!’s advert amassed a staggering 402 complaints, though these were not upheld by the ASA, who ruled in Viva!’s favour. This clearly shows that if nothing else, we were confronting people’s longheld beliefs.  For these people we have planted an important seed. And let’s face it a formidable challenge is nothing new in terms of spreading a vegan message to the public at large!  

Speaking about the advert, founder and director, Juliet Gellatley, said: 

“The TV Ad was a huge success and now more than ever, it is important to ensure the advert reach is amplified to be seen by millions more.  

Most people in the UK despise cruelty to animals, yet simply don’t make the connection between animal cruelty and what is on their plate. If we can encourage people to think about what they consume, at a time when vegan alternatives are widely available, we can play a part – on a national scale – in helping to change mindsets and save animals.”

 

What is the advert?

Viva!’s TV advert follows the journey of an everyday meat-eating couple as they decide which takeaway meal to order. Snuggled up on their sofa, with their beloved dog, they choose pulled pork from the food delivery app ‘Just Meat’.

Hungry in anticipation of their meaty meal, the couple race to the door when the delivery driver rings the bell. Upon opening the door, the couple are shocked to find an adorable little piglet on their doorstep and the delivery driver brandishing a butcher’s knife announcing: “Just Meat, delivered fresh to your door.” Gob-smacked and confused, the couple don’t know what to do. Surely, they won’t kill the cute little piggy?

The advert encourages the public to make the connection between the animals they choose to keep as companions and the ones that are destined for their dinner table. Viewers are invited to consider the morality of eating meat, helping them to make the connection between animals and food. The solution? Try vegan of course!

Now, who is ready for round two? Help us get the second most complained about advert of 2022 in front of another 18 million people in 2023!

Premium rewards for supporters who donate the following:

£1000+Visit to the beautiful Dean Farm Animal Sanctuary, Chepstow, along with Viva!’s founder & director and campaigns manager (subject to your availability for given dates).

Crowdfunding Team, Viva!


We’ve launched!

24 July 2023

Here it is – our new crowdfunding campaign to get Takeaway the Meat, Viva!’s award-winning vegan TV ad back in front of 18 million people. We’re so excited to have this campaign up and running again. It’s going to be huge, and we’re so glad you can join us. Let’s veganise the UK!

If you have any questions, take a look at our FAQs or email us at info@viva.org.uk.

Conor

Crowdfunding Team, Viva!

Where exactly will my money go?

We will use all funds raised to broadcast the ad nationwide on Channel 4 and its associated platforms.

How is this fundraising regulated?

Fundraising is regulated by the Fundraising Regulator – an independent, non-statutory body that regulates fundraising across the charitable sector in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

We also comply with the Commission’s guidance on charity fundraising which sets out 6 principles to help comply with legal duties.

You can find out more information here: Fundraising legally and responsibly – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

 

What happens if you don’t meet your target?

Any funds raised will go towards ensuring we can air our advert on Channel 4 and its associated networks. If we don’t meet our target of £40,000 it simply means that we will air the TV Ad to a reduced audience size.


What happens if you exceed your target?

The same applies – if we exceed our target, we will have more scope to reach higher audience numbers!

 

How long will the ad run for?

That depends on how much we raise. If we reach our target, the advert will be aired for four weeks across Channel 4 and associated networks.

 

Which channels will it air on?

Channel 4 and a selection of its associated networks which includes E4, More 4, 4Music Channels, HGTV, Eden, Dave, Really, W, All 4 on demand player. Full channel list to be confirmed.

 

How does the match-funding work?

An anonymous donor has kindly agreed to match fund the total we raise from this crowdfunder, up to a total of £40,000. Simply, if we raise £40,000, they will donate £40,000 bringing our total up to £80,000.

 

When will the ad air? What time will it be on?

The ad will air in August and September. We will update you with a detailed programme list closer to the time.

£5Lynda SmallI have recently joined Viva, having been Vegan for several years, after being Vegetarian for about 15. The work and campaigns they promote are so important to educate the World of the devastating treatment of animals and their welfare, through intensive farming and the effect on our climate, nature and bio diversity, to follow a plant based diet is a simple step to take and it does so much good to our beautiful sentient animals.
£25Clive ReevesWell done Viva! Your good work is not only saving animals lives, it is saving our planet too – thanks.,
£15David GrimsellEvery time someone buys a pack of chicken or bacon or pork from the supermarket they are causing misery – the misery of the rearing of the animals and the misery of their slaughter. Yet so few make the connection. we need to end the entirely unnecessary violence of meat-eating.

£10Kathleen OyediranThis is so important. We profess to be a nation of animal lovers, yet so many people are still happy to eat them. I don’t see the logic in that. There are so many non-animal options available now and they’re not expensive if you compare them with the cost of meat. I only wish I’d known about the cruelty in this evil trade years ago. But it’s never too late.
