We DESPERATELY need more volunteers in our SPCA Op Shops
Our SPCA Op Shops in Johnsonville, Petone and Lower Hutt all play an important role in the community, raising the vital funds needed to help us rescue, rehabilitate and rehome animals in need. But our Op Shops are running REALLY LOW on volunteers, and with Christmas fast approaching, we really need more hands on deck to ensure we can always be there for the animals who need us in the Wellington region.
If you have a passion for retail, want to work in a friendly environment and grow your skills, all while making a difference for animals, then please consider volunteering with us. We would love to have you on board!

This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.
Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
