Ladbrokes and Coral
Blood money: they place the bet, the dogs pay the price.
Betting is essentially the only thing keeping this cruel industry alive,
which means every bet placed over those counters goes to keeping Romford open.

Here’s some ideas of comments to leave on their socials. Please modify and make your own for the most impact:
Every bet placed through Ladbrokes Coral helps pay for dog tracks that the company owns. 161 greyhounds were killed on tracks last year just in the UK alone. This is blood money!
Ladbrokes Coral own the last dog track in London. 161 greyhounds were killed on UK dog tracks last year. Beware: any money you spend in Ladbroke Coral fuels this cruel industry!
Ladbrokes Coral owns Romford, London’s last dog racing track. That means every bet placed here helps pay for a stadium where 161 greyhounds were killed at UK tracks last year. You can cash out whenever you like. The dogs can’t and pay the ultimate price!
Most people don’t know Ladbrokes Coral owns a greyhound track. It’s the last one in London, and in 2025 the industry it belongs to recorded 3,648 injuries. That’s ten a day. Stop supporting Ladbrokes Coral and the cruel greyhound racing industry!
Come to one of our upcoming actions
This is the single most useful thing. We organise demonstrations outside Ladbrokes & Corals across London and everyone is welcome. No experience needed, and nobody stands alone.
Most people in London have no idea the track is still there, or how much Ladbrokes Coral and greyhound race betting is responsible for keeping this cruel industry running. For those that do know, many are unaware of just how much suffering is involved in greyhound racing. If you’d prefer to leaflet locally instead, please contact us at ROMFORD@SHUTDOWN.ORG.UK and we can set you up with leaflets.
Never bet on a dog race, and never attend one
Simply put, the fewer people that support this cruel industry, the better.
If your workplace, club, or group is booking an event at Romford, tell them what happens there. The stadium sells hard to work dos, birthdays, hen and stag nights, and parties. One email to an events organiser has cancelled bookings before once they are aware of the reality of these races. We can give you the figures to send.
SHUT DOWN ROMFORD
