The amazing guys from Webbox and Pets Choice who manufacture Spikes hedgehog food  have been sponsoring us with both food and financial support. They are helping us spread the word through our Amazing Grace campaign. Not only do they make great pet foods, but they really do care about wildlife. We’re so grateful and inspired by the help they’ve given us.

We are working with them on exciting new projects to understand a hedgehogs needs, health and diet. There are many myths  surrounding hedgehogs and we are looking at data and science for the answers. 

The information we gather will help us find practical and sustainable ways  to support and increase hedgehog numbers. 

Our ‘Surrey Heath Hedgehog  Survey’  is a 4 year project to establish population numbers within the borough and help us to improve  habitats  for hedgehogs and ultimately increase their numbers.  The  study started in 2018  and could not have gone ahead without the support of Spikes.

Each Surrey Heath School will receive a complete survey pack and a magazine all about hedgehogs and their plight. This will enable students of all ages to take part in our data collection. Our project is ambitious and with the continued support of Spikes we are well on the way to achieving our goal to improve the lives of hedgehogs and help them not only to survive but to thrive.
