Covid-19 Update | 78 Stores Reopening

23/10/2020

To our Salvos Stores Community,

Thank you for your continued support of Salvos Stores throughout our temporary closure. It has been heart-warming to see your messages of support and encouragement as well to see so many of our community connect through our Salvos Social Sircle Facebook group.

As things continue to change and develop, so to do the decisions we make at Salvos Stores. With this in mind, I am pleased to announce that from 11th May, we will be re-opening 78 of our stores.

We have made the decision to open these stores to support our community in two ways:

  1. Community Support; Salvos Stores plays a vital role in our communities by ensuring our customers have access to great quality items at reasonable prices, as well as providing support for the most vulnerable in our community. With Winter approaching, we want to ensure our community has access to the items they need.
  2. Donations; Whilst we have been home, we have all been cleaning out at home. These stores will be accepting donations, and will give the community within the local area a place to donate

Alongside this, we have taken a number of additional precautionary measures to ensure that we continue to keep our teams, customers and donors safe whilst they visit us. These are:

  • A deep clean of our stores whilst we were closed to ensure we could re-open as clean as possible\
  • Additional cleaning of our stores throughout the day and every evening
  • The installation of protective shields at our counters
  • The provision of PPE for all our team members
  • Hand sanitising stations at our store entrances
  • Quarantining our donations

We will continue to monitor this, and continue to adapt to the changing environment to ensure we can keep our community as safe as possible.

For anyone who cannot visit our stores in person, don’t forget you can now shop Salvos Stores online at salvosstores.com.au

We want to thank our customers, donors and most importantly our teams for your continued support throughout the last number of weeks and your support in the weeks and months to come.

Blessings,
Matt Davis,
National Director Salvos Stores
