Real Experiences
"They do a great job for these little critters"
3 months ago"A big thank you for taking care of Spikey and nursing her back to full recovery."
a year ago"Horrific service, they have no care for what they apparently set out to do. Iāve called twice for help and on both occasions they havenāt wanted to know. They do all of the fund raising and events but when Iāve asked for help theyāve been rude and unhelpful or havenāt answered at all.Staff are incompetent and full of lies. 1 lady told us she would be in contact about a rescue we helped with. We heard nothing. When we raised this concern her colleagues said we wouldnāt have been told this.When I rang a few months later for help everybody was on holiday and unwilling to help.My daughter rang a year or so later again for help with a hedgehog who was very sick and needed help. The woman I spoke too again didnāt want to help, she was argumentative and rude. When I said āif you wonāt take him thatās fine but can you at least tell me what I need to do to do it myselfā she put the phone down.They do fund raising, take peoples money and give out contact cards and t shirts. But do nothing when you need help.3 times weāve had a poor service. 2 we dealt with ourselves and one we never heard of again.I am disgusted to say me and my family have donated hundreds of pounds to a service that literally have āall the gear and no ideaā merchandise and contact cards donāt go very far Iām afraid."

I love hedgehogs and would help in anyway physically possible and monetary means.....but unless I have proof that what is donated is actually towards the up keep and well being of our š¦, then I'm reluctant to donate..... Thank you, take care, and good luck with the great work Tricia."

Rang Barnacles and was able to get the hedgehog to a local foster carer. Fingers crossed it will be okay. Will be checking to ask about itās progress in a couple of days. Great service."
