We have also supported individuals like J, who faced an injury and job loss at the age of 55, and D, who unexpectedly found herself unemployed for the first time at 64.

Reviews
"Lots of lovely stuff and reasonable pricing."
"Friendly staff and the best selection of pre-loved designer clothes in Canberra."
"I being able to cook my food out the back of your store, being homeless, living out of my car. On the other side of things I don't understand why it's only a one off, exp when you run night petrol for the the homeless from this store. I was not even ask if this store could help me in anyway. I find this very confusing and odd. People don't go around cooking their food in industry Areas if they have a better place to feed themselves. I know I'm just a 30 year old man, with mental illness's. But what if a single mum will children was in need of a place to cook for her kids?"
"Some good things, but I was shocked at the prices. $45 for a wicker basket? Probably will be the last time I shop there sadly due to my ever tightening budget."
"This is such a great Opshop! The staff are super helpful, and it has a great array of clothing, books, toys and puzzles. The prices are mostly reasonable, and you will find a really great bargain every second or third visit. I highly recommend a drop in! It is definitely the best Opshop in the area!"
