10 Thursday <strong>October</strong> 5 <strong>2023</strong> Discover New Brighton Seaside Treasures celebrate nine years of service to New Brighton Time has flown from the 2014 opening of Seaside Treasures, which has been actively helping, supplying, and serving the New Brighton community ever since. The one room shop opened with a small supply of knitted items, pots and pans and a few bits and pieces. It has progressed over the past nine years into a six room location which displays everything from needles in a haberdashery room, to bedding, bears, and barrels. Every person who works in the shop is a volunteer and most of them have been with Seaside Treasures for the past seven or eight years. Over the past almost decade they have donated $15,000 to many organisations and groups. Including the Cancer Society, Westpac Helicopter Service, St John’s, New Brighton Museum, plus more local groups. Founder Shirley Smith and her team of eight amazing volunteers, including a shout out to Anne Marchant, who will be 90 soon and is one of the original volunteers who has come in every week over the past many years. We thank you Anne and we are so grateful to have you as part of our team. You are inspiring! From all of us at Seaside Treasures, we want to sincerely thank the community and our volunteers, including Anne. Seaside Treasures is only around because of each of you. You give us purpose.
