One shop has put up fence to stop weekend donations ( they only want stuff donated in shop hours) they still get heaps of donations and the council collects it all (as it is on the footpath), and it all goes to the tip....
Out of the 6 op shops only 2 of the 6 keep the money in the town, all the rest goes to head office, I think all moneys collected from op shops should be kept in the town, and help the locals???????????????????

I have 2 recommendations for the Neighbourhood Centre in Katoomba, apparently it is a special place. Some time ago when I was looking after a friend I came across a couple of people who suggested women's services through Katoomba Neighbourhood Centre. Some neighbouhood centres specialize in domestic violence and other in counselling. That brings me to the topic of Op Shopping, which I agree is essential in a small NSW town. There are specialized Op Shops for e.g. Salvos where you can find a range of Items. It depends on the cultural make up of the town whether the Op Shop will sell the kinds of things I'm interested in.
