Hedgehog numbers are falling in the uk because they are losing safe places to live. Charities are over many centuries in recent years but none are quite like the Secret Garden in devon.

Everywhere you look injudy� s house, youll find hedgehogs almost 200, in fact. Who have we got here . This is fergus he needs to be weighed and his wound checked. Judys a part time nurse in the nhs but has been rescuing hogs for 16 years. I love everything about hedgehogs. They say your animal chooses you. I also think im beginning to look a bit like a hedgehog because im short and im round, i love my food and i can be a bit prickly on occasion. Sorry she chuckles. Hedgehogs have been placed on the red list of vulnerable species in the uk. Its thought populations have fallen by around a third since 2000. Theyre in decline due to habitat loss and its estimated Hundreds Of Thousands die on our roads each year. The two most important things that anybody can do is make a hole in yourfence, only four and a half inches by four and a half inches and allow the hedgehogs passage between your gardens, so youve linked them up, and a dish of water out all the time, all year round, because theyre incredibly thirsty little creatures.

The hogs getting a Second Chance at life in the Secret Garden. What a heart warming story to finish on. That is it from me for now. Lets take a look at the weather. Hello there. I think most of us have had to manage our expectations a little with summer 2023 across the uk, and the next few days no exception, im afraid. So far today the best of the sunshine has been through the north scotland, Northern Ireland and northern england. There has been a bit of a north south divide. Further south it was a cloudy, misty, murky, drizzly start to the day and that cloud and drizzle is pushing its way steadily east as we speak out of wales, out of south west england, over towards the capital and along the kent coast for the remainder of the afternoon. In fact, we draw a line really from north wales over to lincolnshire. Anywhere north of that will continue to see the best of the sunshine. A few scattered showers. The winds will strengthen close to gale force across the northern isles, as tied in to storm hans thats affecting scandinavia at the moment. But one unifying factor is the feel of the weather still disappointing for this time of year. High teens for most, maybe, if were lucky, 20 or 21 degrees. Now, as we go through the evening and overnight, well see that rain easing away from the kent coast. We keep some Cloud Filtering in across the south west. Where weve got the breaks in the cloud temperatures into single figures, but it feels quite humid down to the south west by the end of the night as were tapping in to that warmer air coming from the near continent. High pressure is building and we will start to see an improving picture on wednesday, but this warm front toppling across the high will still introduce more in the way of Nuisance Cloud and drizzle. Quite murky conditions once again on those exposed west coasts. Northern and eastern areas seeing the best of the sunshine and potentially the best of the warmth on wednesday, but all of us will be a degree or so up in comparison to of late, so low 20s, possibly as high as 2a or 25 degrees. Thats the mid 70s fahrenheit. Warmer still as we go into thursday. Were going to tap into some extreme heat thats pushing its way up from iberia. By the time it gets to us, its not going to be, obviously, as hot. But nevertheless, thursday is likely to be the hottest day of the week as we see those temperatures widely into the mid 20s, possibly as high as 27 degrees. Thats 80 fahrenheit. But its not expected to last, as somewhat cooler and showery conditions are set to return from friday and into the weekend. Thats it. Take care. Live from london.
