Why do hedgehogs need our help?
London’s hedgehogs are in trouble, with the city’s population falling by nearly a third since 2000. We need to act fast to reverse this decline, but this can only be done with practical action. The hope is this project will reverse this shocking decline. So that it will ensure Ealing’s hedgehogs can thrive by being connected to suitable habitat through the borough.
