British Hedgehogs
Pavel Stroev is raising money for British Hedgehog Preservation Society
Story
Dear Friends
I completed the marathon in 4 hours and 42 seconds and Uist Hedgehog Rescue saved 241 hedgehogs this year.
Thank you all who gave us a cheer! Thank you all who supported us!
The Hebredian Islands of North and South Uist and Benbecula are the important breeding areas for wading birds. Their population has dropped - unfortunately; it is possible that a contributing factor is that hedgehogs and other predators eat their eggs. The Uist Wader Project (UWP) decided to KILL all the hedgehogs, who were initially introduced to the island by people in the seventies to control garden slugs.
We believe firmly that relocation of the hedgehogs to the mainland is a far preferable solution than unnecessary extermination.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us. The British Hedgehog Preservation Society will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no extra cost to you. Many thanks for your support!
