This wonderful collaboration between our faith community, Anglicare and Thread Together shares the gift of new clothing with people in need, reduces the waste going to landfill and builds nurturing relationships at the same time.
Paula Lewis is our Thread Together Project Coordinator. Paula has many years of volunteer coordination experience across a range of very interesting community projects, and is passionate about conservation, recycling, upcycling and all things good for the planet.
Kate Davis is our interim Thread Together Project Coordinator. Kate has previously worked with our team at Anglicare as a university placement and has been volunteering with the Thread Together program at St Andrew’s Clothing Hub. Kate is a passionate community-focused professional with a background in hospitality management. Having nearly completed her undergraduate studies in Behavioural Science & Justice, Kate is committed to making a difference in the lives of those experiencing hardship, with particular interest in the mental health and addiction space.
