NURSE MAUDE<br />
Maudes on Trade Me<br />
open 24 hours a day,<br />
seven days a week.<br />
Selling almost everything from antiques<br />
to sporting and household items, Maudes on<br />
Trade Me allows customers to shop online<br />
in the comfort of their own home and raise<br />
money for the Nurse Maude Hospice at the<br />
same time.<br />
At any one time, Maudes has around 250<br />
items up for auction, and almost every one<br />
of them starts at just $1 reserve with rare<br />
and collectable pieces soon reaching their<br />
optimum price.<br />
While the Nurse Maude Hospice shops<br />
sell fashion clothing and accessories Maudes<br />
on Trade Me sells almost everything else<br />
and buyers can come from anywhere in the<br />
country.<br />
With more than 200<br />
items a week being listed,<br />
Maudes on Trade Me<br />
is very dependent on a<br />
steady stream of donated<br />
goods.<br />
“Please dive into your<br />
cupboards and garage<br />
for that unused sports<br />
equipment, jewellery,<br />
china, glass, silverware,<br />
furniture, whiteware<br />
- in fact pretty much<br />
anything in good saleable<br />
condition,” says Sue<br />
Bramwell, GM Marketing at Nurse Maude,<br />
“and we can turn it into the funds needed to<br />
provide hospice palliative care and support<br />
free of charge to patients and their families<br />
in the Nurse Maude Hospice.”<br />
If you need larger items or household lots<br />
collected then email trademe.volunteers@<br />
nursemaude.org.nz or call them on 375 4643<br />
to arrange pick up.<br />
Smaller items may be dropped off at any<br />
of the Nurse Maude Hospice shops around<br />
town seven days a week.<br />
“It’s a perfect way to support the Nurse<br />
Maude Hospice while giving your home its<br />
annual spring clean,” says Sue.<br />
