Helping Hornbeam Wood Hedgehog Sanctuary

Mar 22, 2024

Hedgehog Sanctuary needs your help!

Hornbeam Wood Hedgehog Sanctuary needs your help! 


This local family run registered charity looks after Wild Hedgehogs and is based in Harpenden. They cover Harpenden and the surrounding areas. The charity rehabilitates wild hedgehogs and orphaned baby hoglets that are sick, injured, or underweight.


They are desperate for a new sit on lawnmower to maintain the meadows, fields, and paths and have started a crowdfunding project aimed at raising £3,300.


Their fundraiser Donation Link can be found here: https://www.avivacommunityfund.co.uk/p/new-lawnmower-hedgehog-sanctuary and 100% of donations go to help the hedgehogs.


Their old sit on lawnmower has given up on and although they have tried to maintain and fix it continuously over the past 8 years or so, it is now at the end of its life   This old lawnmower was originally very kindly donated to the Charity by a local Scout group.


It is a vital bit of machinery that helps to maintain many areas at the sanctuary and allow access to fields and meadows and upkeep, but they don't have the funds to replace it.


Please help them to reach their goal - any donation amount is greatly appreciated. Aviva will match fund any unique donation up to £250 pounds too.


Please do help to spread the word as any support will be a great help.  The santuary is hoping to raise enough funds to purchase a new John Deere X107 42 107cm Deck Lawn Tractor.


Registered Charity No. 1190048
