Story

<p>My Mum, Wendy, died on 26th June 2011. Its been a great shock to all of us, as it was very unexpected.</p> <p>Mum was a great animal lover and saw it as her duty to look after the local wildlife. She fed the birds in the garden on a regular basis and had attracted a host of foxes and badgers which were fed a diet of luxury every evening. I was very puzzled when I did some shopping for my parents a while ago and she asked me to buy dog food and dog biscuits - they had four cats. It transpired that the dog food was for the very spoilt badgers...</p> <p>Dad and I decided that rather than having flowers at her funeral, it would be very appropriate to donate money to a wildlife charity. Secret World Wildlife Rescue are an excellent local charity who Mum greatly approved of and so we'd like the money to go there.</p> <p>Please give whatever you can, it doesn't matter how small. I'd really like to get to &pound;1000, which might be a bit ambitious, but it would be enough to care for an orphaned badger cub right through to its release in the wild, which Mum would have loved.</p> <p><a href="http://www.secretworld.org/">http://www.secretworld.org/</a></p> <p>Thanks for reading.
