Donate your Curtains and Spark Joy

Sustainability Trust

The Wellington Curtain Bank desperately needs your help. Every year it upcycles and provides over two-thousand pairs of curtains to households across the Wellington Region.

With winter finally settling in, they are dangerously low on curtains and are at risk of not being able to meet the demand for this social service.

If you have non-mouldy curtains you no longer need, please donate them to the Curtain Bank and Spark Joy knowing that you have helped to warm up another person’s home.

The Curtain Bank also desperately needs lining for these curtains. If you have white/cream or grey poplin/polyester/cotton or calico sheets in your linen cupboard please donate them to the Curtain Bank.

For more information on what we accept, head to our website or Freephone
0508 78 78 24 ext 705.

Costume Cave: CLOSING final week!

Ana Maea Chitara from Newlands

End of an era, the Costume Cave needs to get rid of what remains from their closing down sale.
So PARENTS AND SCHOOLS now's the time to think ahead to dress-ups, halloween, craft projects, painting rags, etc.
A few things(like those furs) will have prices, but 90% of stuff is please-take-away. Koha appreciated.
No orders, no holds.
Take your own bags!
Until Sat 11 May 2024, 3.30pm.
Closed wednesday.

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
