Hedgehog Streets Project

Help hedgehogs get around by making holes and access points in fences and barriers to link up the gardens in your neighbourhood.

Utilising funds from the Reaching People Environment Grant, East Goscote Parish Council is pleased to be able to offer free hedgehog labels for those wanting to create a hedgehog hole in their garden. All we ask that a photograph of the label in situ is sent to the Council to support our feedback for the Reaching People Environment Fund.

Labels can be collected from the Parish Office at the Village Hall during normal opening hours. Please contact us on 0116 260 2202 or email admin@eastgoscote-pc.gov.uk for more information.

More information about hedgehogs and how you can help can be found at: www.hedgehogstreet.org.

Greener Goscote may be able to offer advice with location and installation for a small donation if you can’t manage this yourselves. Please contact David Cannon on 07873852372, or email greenergoscote@outlook.com to discuss this.

More information as to how to create a Hedgehog Hole can be found here: How To Create a Hedgehog Hole

We would love to see photos of your labels in situ – please email these to the Parish Office.

Please report any hedgehog sightings to NatureSpot.
