Hedghogs Love Farnham 2021 Calendar

We are delighted to announce that the Hedgehogs Love Farnham 2021 Calendar is going ahead, so please send in your best landscape  pictures from the last year for potential inclusion to: photocomp@the-hedgehogs.org.uk
However, due to the current and likely ongoing social distancing and given all of the inherent limitations of the Covid pandemic, we will not be in a position to judge entries for the Hedgehogs Love Farnham 2021 Calendar photographic competition this year as in previous years.
As we also currently have insufficient appropriate photographs submitted for the 2021 calendar, we will therefore be using a mix of the best of the past 5 years used / submitted plus those submitted before the closing date of 3rd August 2020.
Each successful entry used in the calendar will continue to receive a A4 calendar, as this is the only size we intend having printed this year due to anticipated street sales restrictions.
All being well next year life hopefully will be back to normality as will be the competition.

Farnham Coronavirus Support Fund 

The Farnham Coronavirus Support Fund aims to provide financial support or assistance to individuals and families in Farnham who find themselves in exceptional circumstances due to the pressures caused by lock-down, social distancing and coronavirus.

As one of the founding members, the Farnham Hedgehogs are supporting this Farnham town effort to help members of the community who are in difficulty arising from the pandemic and its restrictions, having  made  a contribution to the funds and are totally involved.

If you need help or wish to donate to the fund then please click on the picture below.

Working together to help save lives.

Farnham Hedgehogs  supplied and Surrey 4×4 Tours delivered and helped install  two of the  the Farnham Hedgehogs marquees today at Farnham Hospital. Working alongside the Farnham Town Council and the NHS, the Hedgehogs marquees will be used as Covid-19 testing stations over the next few weeks.

Steve Tilburn

Treasurer

e: treasurer@the-hedgehogs.org.uk

Steve joined the Hedgehogs’ in 1999 and in 2008 agreed to take on the position of Treasurer. He’s not an accountant, just a simple engineer and happy to say that after handling in excess of £75,000 plus raised and distributed each year, the accounts always seem to balance!

Roger Hobbs

Social Secretary

e: rogerhobbs47@btinternet.com

Roger is a long term member who certainly knows the ropes. He’s a whirlwind of enthusiasm and ideas with which he keeps the diary full on both the social and fund raising fronts. Suffice to say there’s never a dull moment when he’s around and he can more often than not be seen in action at most events.

Howard Warner

Collections Co-ordinator

e: howard31@zoho.com

Howard’s Scottish granny taught him to look after the pennies, his English granny taught him to look after the pounds. So he is well qualified to be the Hedgehogs Collections Coordinator.
