Publication Date: 17th May 2010 Tecni-Cable Goes Wild 
Double Trouble - Two Orphaned Badger Cubs at Secret World Tecni-Cable has announced that it is sponsoring and supporting local charity, Secret World Wildlife Rescue. Secret World is the obvious sponsorship choice for Tecni-Cable, due to its close proximity to the company, coupled with the Tecni-Cable team’s passion for wildlife and outdoor living. Secret World was founded in 1992. The centre cares for over 4,000 injured and orphaned wildlife in which its main aim is to return animals back into the wild and give them a second chance. The centre is unique as it provides the only 24/7 365 rescue service in the south west however it receives no government funding so relies upon public donations and the support of local businesses such as Tecni-Cable. Tecni-Cable will be making a monthly contribution to help finance Secret World’s work, but is keen to extend the relationship even further by providing support and awareness through regular fundraising events, as well as additional help and assistance behind the scenes. Trevor Heyworth, Managing Director at Tecni-Cable says: “As a local company, we feel it’s important to support the good work being done by this excellent, but under-funded local charity. Having grown up in the South West, the conservation of wildlife is a subject close to our hearts, and Tecni-Cable will be doing everything it can to help Secret World raise the funds needed to continue its work." Debbie O’Keefe from Secret World says: “We are delighted that Trevor and his team have chosen our charity as we struggle to raise the daily running costs of £1300. Tecni-Cable has already visited Secret World,and has seen first-hand some of the wonderful work that we do at our centre. We are looking forward to working with them this year and are extremely grateful for their support."
