RSPCA Victoria is excited to join Elsternwick’s lively retail scene with a new RSPCA Op Shop at 418 Glen Huntly Road, Elsternwick.
The new store will offer a wide range of high-quality homewares and popular fashion brands to locals, while helping to care for some of the state’s most vulnerable animals.
RSPCA Victoria Head of Commercial Enterprises, Edwina Morgan, said every purchase from an RSPCA Op Shop helps create a better future for animals in Victoria.
“RSPCA Victoria Op Shops give the community another way to support a cause they care deeply about – animal welfare,” Ms Morgan said.
“In the last financial year, more than 7,500 animals came through our shelters, many needing essential veterinary treatment before they were ready for adoption.
“Every donation and purchase helps not only to care for these vulnerable animals but also to create a better future by reducing waste and building community connections.
“Our Elsternwick store will be stocked with unique fashion and homewares, from much-loved brands to sought-after labels you know and love.”
Elsternwick has a thriving retail environment, and the new shop’s proximity to other retail options will encourage people to spend more time in the area.
“Our shops provide a way for shoppers to find quality and style at affordable prices, while giving clothing a longer life,” Ms Morgan continued.
“We are excited to expand our Op Shop network, and we are calling for donations of good quality, undamaged items, and for volunteers looking to develop their retail skills and make friends in a fun environment.”
RSPCA Victoria aims to bring more opportunities for sustainable shopping to Victorians, with plans to grow its Op Shop network to 25 stores in the next three years and recently opened new op shops in Camberwell and Frankston.
In the last financial year, RSPCA Victoria Op Shops diverted 284,867 items from landfill.
