RE-NEW IS CLOSING DOWN

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Sadly, I have had to make the call.

The Re-New Community Store and Workshop, at 113 King St North, Hastings, is closing down for the foreseeable future, as of Saturday afternoon.

Between the cyclone recovery, the weather and not being able to get the workshop and course up and running, due to losing all my funding, and the overhead costs, I am not able to continue operating.

The store is still open until 10am-2.30pm today (Thursday) through Saturday, so you can still come and find that Fathers Day gift you forgot to get, for Sunday. And I will be here all day Sunday for people to come and collect any of the furniture and fittings they want to take.

I also have a lot of store, office, kitchen, laundry and workshop furniture available for koha (to help offset costs).
There are 1.8m corner desks, chairs, shelves, washing machine, dryer, computer, 3 printers, small appliances and more. So come in and see what you need. Bring a trailer or something similar for the big stuff. I don’t want to have to break everything down, due to time constraints.

I plan to take some time to get my health back and start sleeping again, then perhaps start again, on a smaller scale, in a new location (somewhere that costs a lot less). So keep an eye out.
