DescriptionAnimal Welfare Party (AWP) is a minor political party in the United Kingdom campaigning on an animal rights, environment and health platform.

The party aims to bring attention to animal welfare, environmental and health issues, in a manner similar to its Dutch equivalent, Partij voor de Dieren (Party for the Animals), for which the AWP founder, Jasmijn de Boo, stood in the 2004 European elections. Both de Boo and the current leader, Vanessa Hudson, have likened the AWP to the anti-slavery and universal suffrage movements. The party says it has more than 100 members and over 14,000 supporters, mainly in London and Wales.
