Quote: “I’ve always been a great lover of wildlife, and so I’m delighted to be the Patron of The Lancashire Hedgehog Care Trust and to support the excellent work they do to help the vulnerable hedgehog here in the North West”.   Nick Park CBE.

 

 

IMPORTANT:   IF YOU HAVE FOUND A SICK OR INJURED HEDGEHOG AND YOU NEED TO FIND YOUR LOCAL RESCUE CENTRE -  PLEASE CONTACT THE RSPCA 24 HOUR CALL CENTRE ON 0300 1234 999.  THANK YOU.

PLEASE DO NOT KEEP THE HEDGEHOG AND ‘HAVE A GO’ YOURSELF, ONLY TO FIND SEVERAL DAYS LATER THAT YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR DEPTH.  NEITHER ARE THEY PLAYTHINGS OR PETS FOR YOUR CHILDREN.  WE SEE THE TELL-TALE SIGNS OF THIS TIME AND TIME AGAIN.   ALL TOO OFTEN, BY THE TIME THE HEDGEHOG GETS TO A RESCUE CENTRE, IT IS TOO LATE.  A SICK OR INJURED HEDGEHOG NEEDS IMMEDIATE SPECIALIST CARE TO BE GIVEN THE BEST POSSIBLE CHANCE OF SURVIVAL.
