We are building Cornwall a hedgehog 'Hogspital'! The foundations are in, the next step is groundworks - fencing, drainage and surfacing.
Our new location is on the Carnanton estate which is an ideal location for Prickles and Paws due to its quiet surroundings and excellent road access. It's low rent with a 25-year lease makes it a very sustainable option.
The new premises will also enable us to expand our existing capacity for admissions, as well as education and volunteering opportunities. This next phase will see our drainage works being installed along with our phased installation of our actual "Hogspital"
Our Team of Hedgehog Carers and volunteer drivers are amazing in supporting us 365 days a year, and its all currently run from a back garden. Our "Hogspital" will mean we can assist in the future of our Hedgehogs and wildlife conservation.
