WILDLIFE lovers in Bolton are being urged to give hedgehogs a boost as they wake from hibernation.
The RSPB say the creatures lose a third of their bodyweight during the winter and may struggle to find the natural food they need.
To supplement the hedgehogs’ natural diet, the RSPB has launched a new food called Cranberry Crunch.
Gardeners can also set up a permanent hedgehog shelter in their garden. Go to: visit rspb.org.uk/homes
