FUNDRAISE FOR OUR NEW HEDGEHOG RESCUE VEHICLE
One of the most beneficial assets for us to rescue hedgehogs is our Jimny Rescue Car. Our hedgehog rescue vehicle is used to rescue over 250 hedgehogs each year, and also release nearly all those hedgehogs back in to the wild again. Our current Suzuki Jimny (featured in the above video) is 20 years old and was purchased by one of the Trustees for the Charity to rescue hedgehogs. Although it still runs, it's showing its age and desperately needs replacing.
Please let us know if you would like your fundraiser to go towards our new rescue vehicle. Any amount raised by your fundraiser would be hugely appreciated. The running total raised by live streamers who reach incentive goals of £600 or £1,200 will be displayed below with the amount they raised, their avatar, and a link to their live stream channel.
2020 Suzuki Jimny 1.5 SZ5 ALLGRIP 3dr Manual £28,000 (Second Hand)
The rear luggage space can be expanded by folding the rear seats which is perfect for transporting rescued hedgehogs, and the side opening door makes it easy to access. The Jimny is built for off-road functionality. Its strong square body expresses its off road ability and robustness and the 4x4 is invaluable when we drive in woods and fields to rescue hedgehogs.
