Hedgehog Street.
A single hedgehog travels 1-2 km a night in search of food and usually ranges over an area of 10 hectares (24.7 acres).
Hedgehogs like to eat beetles, grubs, slugs and earthworms.

They also need sheltered places, such as hedgerows to nest, keep warm and to hide from danger.

A lot of fields and woods are being cut down and flattened to build more houses and schools, so the hedgehogs have no place to call home, so they travel to peoples back gardens to be safe and look for food.

So, if you want to make your garden into a lovely place for hedgehogs to explore, then please visit https://www.hedgehogstreet.org/ and you can sign up to a campaign.
They also have lots of information that tells you how to help a hedgehog. If you do see a hedgehog that needs help then quickly ring 01584 890801.
