We'd like to say a huge thank you to our volunteers for all of their hard work! Your dedication greatly contributes to our success and allows us to raise crucial funds for all of the lovely rescued animals at the Black Sheep Animal Sanctuary Ōtaki 💜

Newtown shop before and after!
We had a huge sale at our shop on Sunday as part of Newtown Fair, which helped us clear out all our old stock. Then a lovely team of volunteers worked to fully restock everything so that we could reopen today with ALL NEW STOCK! Newtown is open until 5pm today so drop in to get a first look at our newly restocked clothing, kitchenware, bric-a-brac, books, toys and more!
Our Newtown shop is closed today but will reopen tomorrow with 100% brand new stock! As part of our clear out we have loads of free books, kitchenware, and bric-a-brac right outside our shop that is free to take!
Please note we will also not be taking donations today so that we have the chance to get organised and make the shop beautiful for when we reopen tomorrow!
Both our shops are open tomorrow 10-2pm!
