Envirofone Teams Up with Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital: Trade-in Your Old Phone for Wildlife!

We are thrilled to announce a new partnership with St Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital Trust—the world’s leading wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centre. This exciting collaboration means that every time you sell your old mobile phone to Envirofone, you now have a direct and easy way to support the vital work of saving thousands of British animals every year.

This partnership perfectly aligns our mission to promote the circular economy with Tiggywinkles’ mission to protect the creatures living in our environment.


🦔 A Home for British Wildlife

Based in Buckinghamshire, Tiggywinkles is an independent, dedicated hospital that provides a 24-hour service for sick, injured, and orphaned British wildlife. From its famous hedgehogs to badgers, deer, and garden birds, the hospital treats tens of thousands of casualties annually, always with the goal of releasing them back into the wild.

Their work is essential to biodiversity and requires constant funding for medicine, food, and specialised care. By donating the value of your old phone, you can directly contribute to these crucial efforts, helping to give a hedgehog a second chance or a baby bird a chance to fly.


📱 How Your Old Phone Can Save an Animal’s Life

The Envirofone partnership makes supporting Tiggywinkles incredibly simple. Instead of receiving cash payment for your old phone, you can choose to donate the full value directly to the hospital.

Here’s how the process works:

  1. Get Your Quote: Visit our website and get an instant quote for your old device (working or non-working).
  2. Select Your Charity: When you complete the trade-in process, simply select St Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital Trust as your chosen payment option.
  3. Send It In: Post your device using our free postage service.
  4. The Donation: Once the phone is checked and the final price confirmed, Envirofone transfers the full value directly to Tiggywinkles.

This means your phone not only helps reduce harmful e-waste by being reused or recycled but also provides essential financial support for animal rescue and rehabilitation.


🤝 The Link Between Eco-Tech and Conservation

The connection between Envirofone and Tiggywinkles is natural. The precious metals and resources used in smartphone manufacturing directly impact the habitats of wildlife globally. By encouraging the reuse of mobile phones, we minimise the need for mining and reduce the pollutants that can harm animal environments.

Choosing to trade in your phone is a powerful act of environmental responsibility—and now, it’s a direct act of animal conservation.

Support Tiggywinkles today! Get an instant quote for your old device and select the hospital as your beneficiary when you sell your old handset. You can also make a sustainable choice for your next device when you buy a refurbished smartphone.
