Hedgehogs are easily recognizable and can be the sweetest wild animal we can find. However, pollution, habitat loss, road casualties and lack of food are threatening these animals. There has been a considerable decline of the European Hedgehog population in recent years. Considering all these problems, the goal of many wildlife conservation institutions is to contribute to the increase of the hedgehog population and to ensure that these fascinating creatures are around for many years to come.

In this program, you will join a non-profit rescue centre that focuses on treating injured and sick hedgehogs, always with the goal of releasing them back into nature whenever it’s possible. This rehabilitation centre is 100% volunteer-based and it’s the only one in the country exclusively dedicated to the rescue and conservation of this species.

Porto is the second biggest city in Portugal and one of the most authentic cities to visit in the country. Stroll through its sinuous and picturesque streets and feel the pulse of the city, or take the tram to the mouth of the river Douro and get to know the excellent beaches and the outdoor cafés. The historic center of Porto was declared UNESCO World Heritage but is the hospitality and forceful character of the locals that will delight you. Porto is a vibrant and young city with countless cafés, bars, and clubs to have a really good time at night, or relaxed rooftops to have a drink and enjoy the warm Portuguese climate.

2024 at Animal Care and Protection

Honestly, I was surprised, when on the website it shows photos of so many dogs, animals, it turned out I was working at a cat sanctuary. It's not that I was disappointed by the cats, it was just a shock, and also, at points of the sanctuary I feel like I wasn't apart of it massively, there wasn't ...

Let me start with the positive point of this project: the hotel is really nice. Breakfast and Lunch are good and you have a good WiFi connection and access to pool and sauna. Sadly these are the only positive points, I have to say about this project. The rest is complete crap, to say it in a ...

2023 at Biological Park Conservation

There are some inconvenience because of the language barrier. The personnel there are all quite friendly. The accommodation was really good. But personally I don’t like the food there at the park. Although the work is really meaningful, there’s not much to do. For example I only had to help with ...
