Shekyena Marcelle-Brown, Rachel Pain and Luna Spada act for all four defendants at Worcester Crown Court. The case involves a large-scale protest organised by Animal Rebellion across 4 days in September 2022. All defendants are relying on Article 9, 10 and 11 ECHR defences.

The case involves 37 defendants and has been broken down into six separate trials. This is the third trial, and scheduled to last two weeks.

All three barristers are instructed by Raj Chada, Eliza Bell, and May Spencer of Hodge Jones & Allen.
