A brother and sister from Bury St Edmunds put their summer holidays to good use by cleaning up the town to raise money for a hedgehog hospital.

Jessica, 7, and Oliver, 4, raised £50 for the Suffolk Hedgehog Hospital with a sponsored litter pick.

They completed the clean-up operation in areas surrounding Moreton Hall and on Hardwick Heath by West Suffolk Hospital.

They also grew plants during the Covid-19 pandemic and sold them to raise more money for the hedgehogs.

The duo bought the charity the cat and kitten food and delivered it to the hospital in Newmarket themselves.

Suffolk Hedgehog Hospital is currently caring for 95 baby hedgehogs, or 'hoglets', and requires cat food for when they're ready to be weaned.

Jessica and Oliver say they were glad to put their summer holidays to good use to help the charity and clean up their home town.

Those wishing to support Suffolk Hedgehog Hospital can donate via their website or offer their time as a hospital volunteer, off-site foster carer, or help identify more hedgehog-friendly release sites.
