On the Hospice Shop Front - Beachhaven Hospice Shop

It is just over a year since our Beachhaven shop was opened by shop Manager Diane Gable and her wonderful staff. They have embraced wholeheartedly the Hospice tradition of working way beyond the call of duty and have turned what was a decrepit old building into a lively, modern shop with interesting stock and a very defi nite ethic of community spirit. The volunteers there are all local folk and this is a real example of Community involvement.

The shop has already become a local talking point with the wonderfully decorated windows. The shop stocks anything, from plants for the garden to clothing, bric-a-brac and smaller items of furniture and the staff are always thrilled to receive good quality donations. Diane is especially pleased with the new shelving in her extensive “book department.” These have recently been installed by our volunteer Ian Downey, who does so much to keep our shops well fi tted out and in repair. (Not to mention his work around Hospice itself).

As Diane says, “Nothing is too much trouble.” The shop runs on this principle, and we say thank you to all the wonderful people of Beachhaven for their support.

If you are interested in helping in our Beachhaven shop, please pop in and see Diane, or ring Barbara Moss at Hospice on 09 486 1688.

We also have vacancies in our Forrest Hill Warehouse and our other shops in Birkenhead, Glenfi eld, Link Drive, Albany, Browns Bay and Takapuna.
