Our hospital unit which was opened in 2002.  This is fitted out with intensive care incubators and individual recovery units.  There is a treatment area, isolation area, kitchen, laundry and office areas.

The unit was built following intensive fundraising over three years and with assistance from a whole range of local businesses and organisations including Doreen Lofthouse, Bill Hamer (Palmer Ave Garage), Chadwicks Timber Merchants, Celplas Ltd, M.F.I. Furniture Store, B&Q, Clydesdale Roofing Supplies, Topp’s Tiles, Devonshire Blinds, and Windmill Windows.
We were recently successful in being awarded the funding to purchase two intensive care incubators thanks to Care for the Wild.  These incubators have a life support system which is thermostatically controlled providing a warm and safe environment, giving the hedgehogs in our care the best possible chance of survival.  They are particularly beneficial for hand rearing baby hedgehogs and also for hedgehogs needing intensive post operative care.  These units will save countless lives in the years to come and we are very grateful to Care for the Wild for their support.
