What does this look like for the College? We are undertaking several projects and initiatives as part of the campaign:
- We have a Hedgehog Friendly Campus working group (email SShea@glasgowkelvin.ac.uk to get involved!)
- A bonfire awareness campaign—please remember to check your bonfires for hedgehogs before lighting
- Information about hedgehogs available to read on campus
- A British Hedgehog Preservation Society fundraising pot is available on campus at Springburn
- Hedgehog Hazards and Hedgerow Audits of all three campuses, and a wider hedgehog survey
- Hedgehog houses will be put on campus, as well as a bug house
- Stickers for strimmers and mowers to remind staff to check for hedgehogs before using equipment
- Taking part in the ‘Big Hog-Friendly Litter Pick Challenge’
