Help make lead history

Every year, 7,000 tonnes of toxic lead is scattered into our environment.

Here it poisons people, wildlife and wetlands, creeping up the food chain and contaminating the soil for generations to come.

This scandal has been going on for decades. But we finally have a unique opportunity to help make lead ammunition history.

Right now, the new Environment Secretary Steve Reed has recommendations from a review into restricting lead ammunition sitting on his desk. We need him to make the right choice to end decades of poisoning and bring in a full and swift ban right away.

Can you call on Steve Reed to help end the era of lead for good?
