A DEMONSTRATION will be held at a controversial Hampshire animal testing laboratory today.
Animal rights campaigners will protest outside Wickham Laboratory as part of International Animal Rights Day.

The Winchester Road facility is the subject of a Home Office probe after an undercover worker last month claimed she had exposed evidence of animals suffering cruel deaths.
The anonymous investigator, a member of the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection (BUAV), posed as a member of staff from January until October.
