Useful post! Every year for the last few years I have distributed hedgehog related info to my neighbours during hedgehog awareness week. I braved it last year and added my email address but sadly out of a good 100 households I just got two responses. One was a good one, a neighbour just down the road who also feeds the local hedgehogs and we are in regularly contact. And another lady emailed to ask if it was worth her getting a hedgehog box, I did reply but never heard back.
Keen to do more but need to gain much more knowledge so I am confident in talking to people. I am naturally a chatty person but knocking on someone’s door takes a lot of courage! Although I am always going round to different neighbours who have taken post in for me before, maybe that’s when I need to mention hedgehogs!?
I did see on Facebook that one person put a notice board outside her house during hedgehog awareness week with lots of info on which seemed like a great idea.
