Fusion's Old School Op Shop
About the Business
Welcome to Fusion's Old School Op Shop, located at 20 Robertson Drive in Mornington, Australia. As an establishment, point of interest, and store, we offer a unique experience that goes beyond simply shopping.
At Fusion's Old School Op Shop, our mission is to educate, accommodate, support, and share life with individuals and families in need. We believe in helping people find their place and make their mark in the community. By focusing on strengthening young people and families through a community-based response, we aim to create real and lasting change.
As a grassroots community organization with over 40 years of proven history, Fusion Mornington Peninsula provides support and community for young people experiencing homelessness on the Mornington Peninsula. We are one of the 16 centers of Fusion Australia and operate as a living community, led by dedicated youth and community workers. We also rely on the active participation of local businesses, the council, community groups, and passionate individuals to make a difference.
By supporting Fusion's Old School Op Shop, you are helping to strengthen the lives of vulnerable young people and families on the Mornington Peninsula. You are also supporting the only youth accommodation service in the area. We believe that it takes a village to raise a child, and we aim to create that village for young families experiencing homelessness.
Our Fusion Village is purpose-designed for community living, featuring six villas, a communal kitchen and activities space, a lead-tenant house, a sensory garden, and play spaces. This village provides the necessary support for young families to thrive and overcome their challenges.
In addition to our accommodation services, Fusion Mornington Peninsula offers family casework for young families under 25 who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. We also provide mentoring opportunities for parents and caregivers who have completed the Families course. This 6-week program allows participants to meet with a mentor for an hour each week to delve deeper into the topics covered in the course.
As an Australian-born Christian youth and community development organization, Fusion works on the cutting edge of youth issues and various community challenges. We strive to build a sense of community and belonging in all our activities.
If you're interested in connecting with us or learning more about our organization, we would love to hear from you. Join us in making a positive impact on the lives of young people and families in the Mornington Peninsula.

Reviews
"Friendly and pleasant. A lot Of interesting and useful items"
"Used to be a very nice little Op shop, but somehow things have gone to their heads. The goods sold on this shop are all donated and shouldn't be sold for far more that their worth. Lady at the till today had no idea what the item I wanted was worth, so she just made up a price. I could have bought this new for the same price. Don't forget where you came from and what you stand for. Charity is good but not if normal people can't afford your prices anymore. You're taking the Mickey Answer: It's not"nice" to be overcharged either. I suggest you implement an appropriate pricing policy, considering the age and state of the item and that all items are labelled with a price so that both customer and seller know what monies should be handed over"
"The hidden gem Old School Op Shop has old school ethos with profits supporting social enterprise on the Peninsula. It also has great pricing, an excellent range of pre-loved goods and chattles and lovely staff, (with a special mention to the irrepessible "Glennys the Menace" as she's affectionately known - who's not a menace - she's a gem). Always a fun, relaxing time in this op-shop - and you'll probably leave with a few treasures!"
"A Manager gave a price on an item today, shoes and at the counter a tall thin woman was carrying on that the item should have been alot more, she was loud and rude, I paid double if what was asked. This person should not be working in this store if they behave like that."
