Clothing Fundraiser Swap - 17 November

Ashlee from Mount Cook

Donate your unused or pre-loved clothing and then shop for a new wardrobe on the spot - while keeping clothes out of the landfill and supporting the Wellington Women’s House!

This is a community event for everyone, people of all sizes, ages and genders are welcome.

📅 Wed 17 November

⏰ 12.30pm – 6.30pm

📍 Location: MZ03 Rutherford House, 33 Bunny Street, Pipitea

👚 You can arrange an early drop off with us in the CBD by emailing ncwwlgfinances@gmail.com to arrange a time/location. We've kindly had a bunch of clothing kindly donated from our friends at Dress for Success! If you're bringing items on the day, please bring max 15.

💵 Pay what you can entry, cash and bank transfers accepted. We’ll be donating proceeds to the Wellington Women’s House, who provide low-cost, temporary housing for women on low incomes or in transition: wwbh.org.nz

🛍️ BYO shopping bags.

⚠️ We'll be going ahead in Level 2, so we’ll be adhering to the standard face covering, social distance guidance.

This event is hosted by the Wellington Branch of the National Council of Women New Zealand, Te Kaunihera Wahine o Aotearoa, in collaboration with Dress for Success.

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?
