Shift to Thrift at Red Cross Shops this September!

Red Cross

Hi neighbours! September is the perfect time to Shift to Thrift and enjoy the joy of second-hand shopping. Our Nelson Red Cross Shops are bursting with treasures this spring – from quality pre-loved clothing and shoes to books, furniture, homeware and gifts. Every purchase supports the humanitarian work of New Zealand Red Cross right here in our communities, while giving pre-loved items a new life.

We’ve got two shops ready to welcome you, both open 7 days a week (including Sundays!):
📍 Nelson City Centre – 52 Vanguard Street, Nelson CBD
📍 Richmond – 302 Queen Street, Richmond

Pop in this month, find a bargain, and shop with purpose.

Ashleigh from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
