Pitlochry and Highland Perthshire Group AGM and hedgehog talk

Join us for our AGM, from 6.00pm to 7.00pm, when everyone is welcome to review the previous season’s talks and share ideas for future programmes. This will be followed by a talk at 7.30pm from Morag Boyd, Rural Hedgehog Officer from the People’s Trust for Endangered Species and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society.

Once a common sight in British gardens and the countryside, West European Hedgehogs (Erinaceus europaeus) have been declining in numbers - particularly in rural areas - with the International Union for Conservation of Nature recently adding them to the list of near threatened species on its Red List.

Morag will explore the biology and ecology of these fascinating nocturnal animals, before highlighting the threats that our hedgehogs face and what we can do to help them. This will be followed by an opportunity to put your hedgehog-related questions to her.

This event will take place in Tryst, Church of Scotland, Church Road, Pitlochry, PH16 5EB.

For any queries, please contact Mark Aquilina on 07796561844.

Suggested donation: £3 for non-members, £2 for members (you can donate in person on the day). Donations are welcome for the talk portion of the event, not the AGM.
