National Hedgehog Day

Residents celebrated National Hedgehog Day with a relaxed colouring activity, choosing hedgehog designs to personalise.

The session encouraged conversation, as residents shared stories about feeding hedgehogs and creating small homes for them in their gardens. Robert commented that colouring his hedgehog reminded him of his life as a country farmer.

Afterwards, residents enjoyed tea while watching a documentary about hedgehogs, prompting discussion and curiosity about the animals. Many residents found the film both informative and enjoyable, and it sparked memories and shared experiences.

The afternoon offered a calm and engaging way to celebrate wildlife, combining creativity, learning, and conversation that was enjoyed by all who took part.
