Dixon is engaged with various animal rights organisations and is also a pescetarian.[87][88] She is Vice-President of the League Against Cruel Sports, a charity which works to end cruelty to animals in the name of sport and featured in a charity appeal due to concerns that the Hunting Act 2004 could be repealed.[89] In 2012, Dixon travelled to Romania with World Animal Protection to rescue two brown bears from Onesti Zoo, which had closed years previously.[90] The bears were moved to a nearby sanctuary.[90] In 2014, Dixon encouraged her Twitter followers to sign an online petition calling for the ban of slaughtering animals without being stunned first.[91] UK and EU law requires that animals must be stunned before slaughter, unless for religious purposes (Halal or Kosher meat).[92] Dixon is also a supporter of the PetRetreat scheme launched by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA).
