Op Shop in Tuggeranong Moved to Manuka
Communities at Work’s Best Dressed Store Op Shop in South.Point Shopping Centre, Tuggeranong is temporarily closed and has been relocated to Manuku while we wait for a new shop space at South.Point.
Why buy clothing at the Best Dressed Store?
“Around fifteen per cent of the Best Dressed Store’s stock is brand new. Why pay $300 for a high-quality outfit when you can get it for $30?”, says Trevor, Best Dressed Store Manager.
Money from all purchases made at the store is used to create sustainable and ongoing funding to help vulnerable clients through the Communities at Work Clothing Program, Community Pantries, and other support services provided to struggling individuals and families.

Where do the clothes come from?
The stock in the store is entirely comprised of donated items from members and businesses in the Canberra community. As one of the few upmarket op shops in Canberra, we pride ourselves on maintaining a high standard of quality and product and even stock a wide range of fashion labels.
