Animal Welfare Offences


Press Reporting, 2010 to 2024

Set out here, in reverse chronological order, are links to press reports that have been published between 2010 and 2024 and which document the particulars of the animal welfare offences and food hygiene offences committed by Roger Keen Farms Limited which operates at Sandridge Farm at Bromham in Wiltshire under the management of Roger Keen and Rosemary Keen, just as was Sandridge Farmhouse Bacon Limited before the appointment of its liquidator in August 2024.

 

The reports contain publicly available information about Roger Keen and Rosemary Keen as the directors of Roger Keen Farms Limited (and formerly of  Sandridge Farmhouse Bacon Limited, prior to the liquidator's appointment on 9 August 2024) and their business practices at Sandridge Farm, the particulars of which were used to form the summary on this website's Home page of the animal welfare offences of which Roger Keen Farms Limited was found guilty by Bristol Crown Court in June 2024, following a trial during which the court heard how Roger Keen had allowed animals "to suffer unneccessarily" (per Calne News, 12 June 2024; see link below).
