St Paul’s Op Shop jottings

St Paul’s Op Shop is open again, with the volunteers well rested after a lovely summer break, ready to help you find the perfect pre-loved treasure.

This year, though, there is a noticeable difference, with the always-smiling and always-helping Graeme Millar no longer with us. Graeme wrote this monthly article for many years, and we fondly remember his amazing contribution to St Paul’s as we start 2023.

Many in the community know our little shop well, but we would love more of you to discover our ‘old-fashioned’ style and service. Did you know that many of our adult clothes and shoes are only $2, and children’s clothes and shoes are $1?

and Fridays from 10am to 3pm. If you need assistance with food and general household items, please contact the Foodbank on 0492 850 520, drop in on a Wednesday or Friday, message us via Facebook (@ GisborneFoodbank) or visit our website (www.gisbornefoodbank.org.au).

Located on the corner of Brantome and Fisher Streets, opposite St Brigid’s and Gisborne Primary schools, the op shop is open on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 10am to 1pm and Wednesday to Friday from 10am to 4pm. We are always looking for home decor items, clothing (especially men’s clothing) and shoes that are in good condition.

So what are you waiting for? Donate what you no longer need, come and find a bargain or pop in and ask us about volunteering.
