EXCITING NEWS! We have a new store on the way in the neighbourhood, located at 121 Wairau Road, Wairau Valley 0627.
CAN YOU HELP? We are need of additional support with more volunteer applications, helping out to set-up the store from Monday 15th November onwards. As well as ongoing support with the day-to-day operations alongside our great, supportive team. If you have some spare time or want to try something new, we'd love to hear from you.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
