PORT WAKEFIELD UCA OP SHOP To Members of the Community: We have previously asked that goods not be left outside the Op Shop when it is not open. Goods to be delivered only when Op Shop is open or you can ring Margaret 88671404 or Diana 88671045, if opening times do not suit you so we can come and put them inside out of the weather. Op Shop Opening Hours are: Saturdays 9 until 11.30 am and Alternate Wednesdays 2 to 4 pm., and at other times by request.

Two weeks ago goods were left outside the Op Shop and spoilt with the rain overnight. This made a lot of extra work for a volunteer to have to sort through and then to dispose of the spoilt items. While we appreciate your generosity in donating items, we would appreciate your co-operation in this area. Volunteers are hard to get, so please make it easier for them. After all they do not get paid for their volunteering. Thank you, Diana (Fellowship & Op Shop co-ordinator).
