In memory giving
Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult things any of us must deal with. During difficult times, doing something positive can be a big help in coming to terms with a loss.
Giving a gift to charity is a great way to shine a light in the darkness and has the added benefit of honouring the achievements and beliefs of your loved one. If they had a passion for wildlife and nature and wanted to protect it, then a gift to Secret World Wildlife Rescue in their memory would be an ideal way to continue their legacy after they’re gone.

Funeral collections
Many people ask for donations instead of flowers at a funeral, as cut flowers fade and die so quickly. Donating to a favourite cause can be of lasting benefit for a charity such as ours. Most funeral directors are happy to arrange such collections and forward the donations onto us.
Memorial trees
In the grounds at Secret World Wildlife Rescue we have a special memory walk, where we can plant a hardwood tree, with a memorial plaque beside it, in memory of your loved one.
Memorial benches
We can also offer the opportunity to have a memorial bench situated in the grounds. Please get in touch if you would like this so we can talk to you about options and locations.
Memorial plaques
In our courtyard, we have a special memory board for plaques dedicated to people who, during their lifetime, have shared our love of wildlife.
