Lupus Australia, Queensland Inc

We are into our second month of running our op-shop.  We are happy with how it is going, raising awareness and raising funds to provide support and just keep everything running.

We have a steady stream of volunteers from St Peters and UQ (along with our very helpful regulars) who are very good  - but of course we always need more help.

Some of our volunteers

It seems like they do just as much trying clothes on as helping out - all good fun!

 

PHOTOS OF SOME OF THE HAPPY CUSTOMERS IN THE LUPUS SHOP

.....some regulars, some who have never shopped for themselves prior (but had no
trouble finding colour co-ordinated gear which was worn out of the
shop), others looking successfully for vintage gear for a very special
event.

We must take this opportunity to thank everyone who donates to the shop,
those who buy and the craft people (who are looking for people wanting
to share their expertise with) who come in Tuesdays to demonstrate/teach
or others who may have a craft they can share with others or donate to
the new crafts section of the shop.
