New guide for helping hedgehogs

Hedgehog Street has published a free guide aimed at housing developers, planners and other landscape professionals, to show how they too can help save Britain’s favourite mammal.

The guide was created with the help of Warwickshire Wildlife Trust. Titled 'Hedgehogs and Development', the new booklet aims to encourage housing developers, contractors and builders, as well as local authorities and landscape architects, to make small changes to developments that will help hedgehogs.

 

The guide gives straightforward advice that can be implemented before, during and after the build, all with the purpose of protecting local hedgehog populations and preventing further decline, and ultimately ensuring their future in the area.
