The Salvation Army

The thrift shop has some cool we finds if you dig deep.

awesome place worth a visit

I have been going to Sallies since I was 5ish...now 54! Always welcomed, included. They do so much for the Community.

I'm very impressed. I haven't been to a food bank in ages but due to the cost of food, I had no choice.The last time I went in for food, I ended up with more snacks like chocolate and biscuits but this time they gave me lots of fruit, things to bake with and caned goods. Basically, food that I can make good meals from for over a week.It's still embarrassing when things are bad enough to require this type of assistance but things have just risen in price way too much in the last couple of months, its hard to compensate.

Really lovely ladies and great clothing no rubbish

They are not trans friendly. My daughter is trans I wouldn't trust them to keep her safe

Simply a wonderful, friendly, and welcoming place. They are among the longest established faiths and community service providers in the linwood and eastern communities of Christchurch.Thrift store, social and welfare services, religious services, support services and food assistance programs operate from the linwood centre.No matter who you are, you are welcome. Regular activities and social gatherings provide a wide range of settings that foster a culture of inclusiveness for everyone.An amazing atmosphere of caring and sharing is notable and apparent from the moment you meet the first member of their fantastic team.Off street parking, wheel chair friendly, open most days from 9-5pm. Social services closed Sunday’s and at other times on weekends. Best to check first.If you need help, are lonely, have financial difficulties, social isolation, religious engagement, temporary food assistance, or just someone to talk to, these guys are the first place to go.A visit to Sallies can change your world!!!Top notch caring and professional family of outstanding humans taking one day at a time to care for the world and those around them.

Excellent, good prices, great clothing. Thank you

Looks like the op shop is slowly fading, like most op shops nowadays

The best church ever, great people and community who are always there for you. Can't recommend this place more. My kids have been going to Mini Rockers and church ever since they were little and love this place. So welcoming :)
