Prickly characters get rescue centre

A couple have transformed their home into a hospital and haven for over 500 hedgehogs.

- 

Andy Longhurst, 59, and wife Sharon, 50, have dedicated their lives, and home, to care for orphaned, sick and injured hedgehogs until they are well enough to be released into the wild.

They started out caring for seven of the creatures in a bedroom at their house in Burntisland, Fife, before converting their garage and installing a garden outbuilding.
