Background
The organisation was founded as the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Vivisection, in 1911 by Netta and Elizabeth Ivory. It continues to work towards an end to animal experimentation but in the 1950s expanded to include protection of all types of animal. It was renamed Advocates for Animals in 1990, as part of a rebranding campaign that included a new logo, but officially became known as OneKind in 2010.
