Lithgow's Secret Creek Sanctuary suffered extensive damage to its dingo fence and other animal enclosures from the Gospers Mountain bushfire which tore through the Lithgow LGA on December 21.

Secret Creek Sanctuary owner and Australian Ecosystems Foundation Inc. Trevor Evans said most of the property surrounding the sanctuary was burnt.

"We had a bit of damage and lost one dingo fence but we didn't lose any animals," he said.

Mr Evans said the wildlife were removed from the sanctuary and transported to Featherdale Wildlife Park before the fire hit.

He said a few cars and a container of tools had been destroyed by flames but he was thankful that no one was injured and no buildings were lost.

"We lost chainsaws and drills, so it's all things that we need to fix the place, replaceable things," he said.

Fortunately for Secret Creek, Bathurst ARC Fencing came to the rescue on Tuesday, February 18 with the delivery of $10,000 worth of fencing supplies to help with the repair and recovery process.

Bathurst ARC Fencing reo branch manager Rob Lowe said the company was doing an internal drive with team members across Australia donating funds.

"Donations are being made by staff members to a GoFundMe page we've set up and the organisation as a whole will match dollar for dollar.

"We distribute funds to organisations that staff members decide on and in the process someone mentioned the sanctuary, so we contacted them to see what we could do and what they needed, it turned out they needed fencing," he said.

According to Mr Lowe ARC donated around 1000 metres of fence line and some supports and extra wire to help with some of the sanctuary's current fencing.

"We wanted to get the supplies out here as soon as we could to help with repairs," he said.

Mr Lowe said he felt great in being able to help a not-for-profit sanctuary.

"It's fantastic, we couldn't get on board quick enough.

"I'm big on looking after our own," he said.

Mr Evans said the Secret Creek Sanctuary had been blessed by the donation from ARC Fencing Australia.

"It's all come together and it's fantastic especially being a not-for-profit sanctuary, we run on donations and interest in general public.

"We thank them for their support," he said.
