InfraDig:
Can anyone tell me what sort of caterpillar this is, please. It is on a blueberry bush.
Thanks very much.

Obelixx:
Could be a tussock moth caterpillar.  Have a look at this link - probably rusty or white marked tussock moth

Vapourer Moth: https://butterfly-conservation.org/moths/vapourer

I'd suggest as it apparently has a wide range of food plants that you move it from anything you do like to something you don't!

A bit more here - actually,  a rather interesting critter. https://breedingbutterflies.com/orgyia-antiqua-vapourer-moth/

InfraDig:
Thanks very much to both of you. It's now in a large jar with plenty to eat (judging by what is coming out!). Maybe I can see what it turns into!!

My money is on Vapourer Moth too...
