Another great find at Henderson ReStore!

The Team from Henderson ReStore Charity Shop (Habitat Auckland)

Kia ora Westies! Meet John, a volunteer at our Henderson ReStore at 7 Dora Place, Henderson. He doesn't like to see anything go to waste. So today he showed us some upcycled lamps he has cleverly made out of kitchen utensils. We love them!

The most recent lamp is made out of a decorative metal teapot and vintage teaspoons. It took John almost three hours to make! His upcycled lights are available for purchase in the ReStore and can add some real originality and quirk to a room! Come on down and discover all kinds of interesting finds!

Remember to think ReStore charity shop next time you fancy a 2nd hand shopping adventure or are donating your pre-loved goods. Like and Follow us on Facebook to be one of the first to see the latest great buys in store.

At ReStore, we are into ‘giving a past a future’, saving the wallet and the environment. Community support means everything to us….. so a big THANK YOU from all our team!

Wishing you a great week ahead everyone :-)

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
