Andrew'S Hedgehog Hospital

We are now on the verge of bursting at the seams and are in need of assistance by way of volunteers. Also plastic guinea pig cages and single outdoor hutches.

We have the date for the airing of Inside out on Andrew's Hedgehog Hospital. To quote an Aussie expression "Cool the tinnies and warm up the T.V." Monday 24th September at 7.30pm BBC1

Hi my name is Mo, the marathon running hedgehog. I'm as fast as a 'bolt' when I get going. I'm helping my friends at Andrew's to raise funds for their new dedicated Hospital being built in the grounds of Elsham Gardens and Country Park. There will also be a 1 km circuit for juniors. Walk, Jog or run the Hedgehog Half Marathon starting and finishing in the grounds of Normanby Hall Country Park on Sunday 7 October 2018 to help raise vital funds to help reverse the decline of hedgehog numbers in the wild. While I'm busy training in the gym why not print the picture below or email info@andrewshedgehoghospital.org.uk for a sponsorship form? Curly's The Hedgehog Half Marathon!

Due to our current heavy work load we are looking for more volunteers to help with the hedgehogs and a volunteer part time admin assistant. Hours worked are usually in the morning starting at 9am and hopefully finishing at lunchtime. Please give us a ring on 01724 872726 if you have a love of wildlife and would like to help us save hedgehogs.

Feeding time at the hedgehog 'zoo' is a little crazy at times. These 4 gorgeous little hoglets are now fed, bathed and resting in their warm bed together again. Please don't criticise us for 'swimming' these babies, they are in for a very short time(around 5-8 seconds) and it has proved to work wonders and helps build muscle whilst doing the vital cleaning job Mum would otherwise have done. Happy weekend to you all. Curly's

We thoroughly recommend Brambles here at Andrews.

Get your running shoes and raise money for Andrews Hedgehog Hospital!!

We are looking for craft clubs, knitters, artists etc to help us equip our new shop with hand made items associated with hedgehogs. This shop will be at Elsham Hall and will be opening shortly. Thank you. For details please ring 01724 872726.

What lovely people - devoting their lives to help this wonderful animal THE HEDGEHOG. Love them - I wish you all the support you can gather, and even better I wish you lots of money. These hedgehogs need us to help them, as so many ignorant people are allowing them to go extinct without it. Money and funds are needed to be able to provide a hospital and for the charity to continue to exist long into the future. Keep up the good work !!! (ps met you all at Chatsworth Show and we will be designing and buying you some new banners)

We've just taken in one of the hedgehogs from our garden to Veronica at the hedgehog hospital, as he has got pneumonia. When we got there we witnessed the great care Veronica was giving another hedghog who was just being admitted. We saw her remove ticks from the little fella & handled him with such care. We then stayed to observe our fella being admitted. Veronica was so knowledgable about caring for these lovely little creatures & she gave us some great advice about creating a little hedghog feeding station in the garden & advice about the dietary requirements. We came away feeling so happy to know that our poorly hedghog is betting the very best of care & spurred on to make our garden even more inviting to the little creatures! They're doing such a great job! Thank you guys for all that you do for needy hedgehogs!

We took a poorly hedgehog to Frank and Veronica this afternoon - such lovely people x The hospital is fantastic, it was an absolute pleasure to meet you both. Thank you for your help.

Total respect to Frank and all those who tirelessly help out these beautiful poorly hedgehogs. We were made very welcome and we even had a little peek at some of the hedgehogs in his care x

The people that look after the hedgehogs are fantastic people and so friendly keep up the good work x

Thanks for all the help we received from you all tonight, especially Jo and Kath, who at 10pm was still willing to organise getting the two little hedgehogs settled for the night. The dedication you have towards these cute little creatures is fantastic.

Thank you to Frank for coming out to rescue three fabulous little orphaned hoglets I found in my garden, I was so relieved to find we had a local hedgehog rescue and Frank was a real gent. These feisty little critters absolutely fascinated me :-)

Thank you for a very interesting talk this afternoon at redcombe carer group and for bringing annie we all learnt a lot i love hedgehogs so it made my day xx

Rescued 4 babies from our garden when their mum abandoned them. Frank collected them. Wonderful charity.

My sister took a poorly hedgehog in and has been cared for her really good there really dedicated to there poorly and in need hedgehogs thank you for getting her better without you it would of ended in tragedy thanks �

Keep up the good work. Brilliant.

Some very lucky hedgehogs. Thank you

If I could give more stars I would! I took a hedgehog there tonight, Frank and his wife Veronica sincerely love what they do. Also they was really keen to show us all how to look after hedgehogs and how to hold them. My son of 10yrs absolutely loved Franks information and letting him hold Andrew ( thanks for that frank)! Keep doing what your doing, your amazing ���

I found a small hedgehog out in the daytime near a busy road a couple of weeks ago, it looked like it had come through a fence and been unable to get back through. While I talked to Frank on the phone someone else brought me a box and together we managed to get it inside the box. When I explained I can't drive Frank was there within 10-15 minutes to pick it up and he was really friendly. Great local charity :)

I found a baby hedgehog out in the daylight near a main road. We took her to Andrews, they treated her and fed her up and now she’s back with us for overwintering together with Ayesha who we got a couple of weeks before for overwintering. Wonderful charity who work so very, very hard.

Frank and Veronica are amazing. I first met them when I found a garden hedgehog out in the daylight and she had a lump on her eye. They organised vet appointments and Cyclops ( as she has become) had an operation on her eye. She came home and I looked after her and then she was re released and is still a regular visitor. Since then I have become slightly hedgehog mad! My husband has installed a night vision camera over my feed bowls so I can watch my garden hogs from the comfort of my sofa! We even wintered a very grumpy hog called huffnpuff last year! Thank you for all you do for hedgehogs and for all your help and advice over the years.

Amazing work done by Frank, Ronnie and the volunteers to help sick, injured and orphaned Hedgehogs have a chance for a wild life.

Amazing place with wonderful caring people running it !, sort help and advice for a hedgehog that visits my garden as my dog got hold of him , I now have him back and with the advice from Veronica I'm going to over winter him , love it!

Amazing people. We found a tiny little baby hedgehog in daylight. Was too small to survive winter. We took him here where they took over his needs with love and care

I met the most amazing caring dedicated and loveliest couple yesterday, F&V (and Diana) they do such a fabulous job and need all the support they can get to keep the good work they do, going.
