It's always up to the individual to determine whether or not to close. The objective considerations with regard to scoring are mostly covered in the Closing Credit Cards thread linked in the Helpful Threads sticky. Read that and factor that into your decision. There are also a lot of subjective considerations and we can't tell you because you need to make those decisions based on your specific needs/wants/priorities/preferences/etc.
You'll get responses such as "keep everything open" or "keep open if no AF" but that sort of thing is up to you.
General advice is at least 2-3 cards for scoring purposes. If you have that many after closing a secured card then you're good on that point.

Contact them and see if they'll unsecure it.
Don't overlook prior threads as a resrouceas well. "Should I close...?" is an extremely common question.
