Karen's Hedgehogspital is a small Hedgehog Rescue based in Brandon Suffolk, dedicated to the rehabilitation and release of injured and sick native hedgehogs back to the wild.

​

Harper Asprey Wildlife Rescue is a small charity dedicated to the Rescue - Rehabilitation and Release of wildlife. They help around 3000 sick, injured or orphaned wild animals including around 800 hedgehogs return to the wild - every year!

​

They are run by a dedicated team of volunteers under the guidance of their Trustee and Founder, Anne Brummer. They are open 365 days a year.

In addition to their Rescue work they are working to help save Hedgehogs through our Amazing Grace Project - starting with making their home area of Surrey Heath - The UK’s first Hedgehog Friendly’ Borough.

Suffolk Prickles Hedgehog Rescue was founded in October 2010. They are a registered charity which works independently from any other hedgehog rescue. 

The purpose of Suffolk Prickles Hedgehog Rescue is for the benefit of the public to further conservation and preservation of the hedgehog species by providing a rescue, care, and rehabilitation service for sick, injured or orphaned hedgehogs with the aim of releasing such hedgehogs back into the wild wherever possible.

​

Suffolk Prickles hedgehog Rescue also works to advance the education of the public in the study of hedgehogs and in the care, methods of treatment, conservation and habitat of hedgehogs.

Emma's Hedgehog Hospital is a self funded Hedgehog Rescue in Terrington St.Clement, King’s Lynn, Norfolk.

​

Emma’s Hedgehog Hospital works towards the goal of removing hedgehogs from the vulnerable to extinction list through Rescue, Rehabilitation and Release.

The rescue cares for the hedgehogs until they are fully recovered, before passing onto fully trained fosterers. Once the hedgehog is well and has reached the required minimum weight for the time of year, it is then released back into the wild where originally found or a release site is suitably matched to each individual hedgehog. The whole process can take many weeks and is tailored to each hedgehogs specific needs.

Hundon Hedgehog Rescue takes in poorly and injured hedgehogs and those too small to survive outside over winter.

It is self-funding and based in a shed in Jillian's garden, though there are a number of foster carers around the village.

​

They work with groups who are responsible for wild spaces around the village to try and ensure their management is as hedgehog-friendly as possible.

Their Facebook group hopes to support the work of the Rescue, but also to encourage people to share their love of and knowledge of hedgehogs.

The Suffolk Hedgehog Hospital is a charity run on a voluntary basis. It was founded by Sue Stubley and is funded purely by donations, which allow them to provide important medical care, food and accommodation for the hedgehogs. 

​

Their goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and release the hogs back into the wild as soon as they are fit and healthy.

Ryston Rachel's Hedgehog Hotel is a small self-funded hedgehog rescue based in Downham Market, Norfolk.

Hedgehog Haven has rescue and rehabilitation centres in Frinton-on-Sea and Witham in Essex.

SWCC runs an onsite Hedgehog Hospital for the treatment and rehabilitation of hedgehogs brought in by the public before release back into the wild. Hedgehogs are brought in from across Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire, as well as from surrounding areas, such as Greater London, Suffolk and Bedfordshire.

​

The project is currently run by a small number of permanent hospital staff, volunteers, animal keepers and SWCC Trustees.

The Hospital educates visitors to the Wildlife Park about the project and the species through interpretation displayed on the building, their website and through a programme of working with local schools.
