THREE people are set to walk through Derby city centre wearing only a sandwich board as part of a protest against the fur trade.

The campaigners, from Derby Animal Rights, will march down St Peter's Street and the Corn Market to the Market Place tomorrow, from 2pm.

Organiser Victoria Martindale said the aim was to show they would rather go naked than wear fur.

She said: "We wouldn't skin our pets to wear their fur."

The march will be followed by a candlelit vigil in the Market Place from 4pm.
