Shift to Thrift at Red Cross Shops this September!
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.
