Arthritis New Zealand donations - Wow!

Some of you may have seen this photo of Stash reHash stall-holder Prue in The Mail recently sorting through her fabrics. It accompanied an article about Stash reHash asking for donations of fabrics, notions, yarn, haberdashery etc for Arthritis New Zealand's stall.

The response has been amazing so a huge thanks to everyone who has donated goods. Many of the people who have donated goods are themselves affected by arthritis and have benefitted from the excellent services provided by Arthritis New Zealand.

If you would like more information about Arthritis New Zealand, please see their website. There is even a support group for parents of children affected by arthritis.

One of my favourite movie lines is in Jaws where the chap deadpans, "I think we're going to need a bigger boat". Well judging from the volume of donations we've received for Stash reHash, "I think we're going to need a bigger table if not a bigger hall!"

Donations for Arthritis New Zealand stall please

If spring springing and the thought of Stash reHash has got you motivated to clean out your fabric stash but you don’t want to have a stall yourself, then I have a great option for you. Arthritis New Zealand are having a stall at Stash reHash and they welcome your donations of good quality fabric, haberdashery and craft supplies to sell on their stall.

All proceeds will go towards their excellent work providing an extensive information and education service for people affected by arthritis. From personal experience I can tell you they do a superb job. To find out more, visit the Arthritis New Zealand website.

Donations can be left at:
Arthritis NZ Southern Regional Office & Service Centre,
Level 1, 15 Washington Way, Christchurch,
during Office Hours, Monday – Friday, 9:00am - 4:00pm.

If you’d love to donate goods but are unable to drop them off yourself, please email stashrehash@clear.net.nz and we’ll make other arrangements to collect your goods.

Thanks so much.
