Mercy Hospice

It’s National Volunteer Week 2026.
Your Year to Volunteer – Tōu tau ki te tūao.

We’re proud to celebrate more of our Ellerslie shop volunteers, back again and wearing it well in pieces from our store. We’re so thankful for all that you do, along with the many incredible volunteers who support us across our shops and wider community. From in-store to behind the scenes, your time, care, and commitment make everything we do possible.

Thank you for all the ways you show up and make a difference.

Big shoutout to our Ellerslie (Friday & Saturday) opshop crew! These legends are absolute superstars 💛

From styling up secondhand gems to keeping the store running day in, day out, we couldn’t do it without them.
Every shift, every rack, every smile makes a real difference. They’re all also modelling clothing from our the store!

If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, this is your sign — come join the team and be part of something good.

And if you want to see more of our volunteers in action (and having a bit of fun along the way), check out MERCY HOSPICE SHOP

Join us for a special evening of exceptional food and community, all in support of Mercy Hospice Auckland.

Hosted at Sfera in Northcote Point, the Aroha Supper is a seasonal dining experience created by chefs Matthew Reade and Matthew Ross. Drawing on more than 30 years of international culinary experience, they’ve designed a five-course menu celebrating outstanding produce, flavour, and technique.

All ticket proceeds from this event will be donated directly to Mercy Hospice, helping us continue to provide compassionate specialist palliative care and support to patients and families across Auckland, free of charge.

$130 per person includes a five-course set menu and a welcome drink on arrival.
