Hedgehog populations in the UK are in serious decline – and as they’re a great indicator species, if they are not coping well, it should ring alarm bells for other species, including humans!

We hope you and your students will be inspired to learn about these amazing creatures – and all the things we can do to help them not only survive in the wild but to thrive.

We’ve created two bespoke lesson plans, and a sneak preview of our new animated film series to help you plan your hedgehog-themed activities for Hedgehog Awareness Week (5 – 11 May 2024) and beyond.
