We desperately need donated goods for SPCA Op Shops!

PLEASE HELP: Our SPCA Op Shops are in need of good quality, sellable goods!

SPCA Op Shops sell everything, from clothing, jewelry, kitchenware, linen, toys and bric-a-brac things for your pets. We are very competitively priced and all the money you spend goes to helping animals in need.

We will happily accept donations in good, sellable condition, not broken, damaged, stained or torn. Simply head to our store during opening hours and speak to our friendly staff and volunteers.

You can help us save our much needed funds for the animals by only donating the items we can re-sell.Donations can be dropped to the Dinsdale Op Shop (located in the Dinsdale shopping centre) during their opening hours - Tuesday - Friday 9am - 4.30pm, or Saturday 10am - 2pm, or the Matamata Op Shop (located 46 Broadway) during their opening hours Tuesday-Friday 9am-4pm.

PLEASE spread the word! Thank you :)

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
