Be Uplifted Inc.

I am lucky enough to volunteer with this amazing organisation and be a small part of a dedicated team who put breast cancer patients ahead of themselves by giving freely of their time. Every person who volunteers with Be Uplifted is not only helping to raise much needed funds through their 2 Op shops but they are also giving back to their community in an incredibly generous way.It takes a special kind of person to volunteer their time freely without expecting anything in return.

This op shop feels like a hand crafter's dream or visiting the home of a matron. I love looking at the beautiful quilts, they are very well-made when you see them up close.

As a volunteer and as a customer at the op shop; I enjoy the variety of items that can be found at the op shop ranging from brick a brac to clothes and hand bags which are reasonably priced. The staff members are friendly.

A nice op shop at Strathpine with lovely volunteers. However management treats mature age centrelink volunteers differently to retired volunteers. As a centrelink volunteer - If you speak up and query management practice, you are sacked. There is no induction, or conflict resolution. Centrelink volunteers have to deduct their 30 minute lunch time off hours worked which is not common practice for volunteers - but is for paid contractors and employees. Volunteers are not paid employees, so different legal rules apply. Also there is a lot of publicity for what this charity receives in donations, but not a lot of publicity for what is given as bequests to help the community. Not a good place to work if you are on Centrelink.

Happened upon this place while on my way somewhere.Massive size for an op shop. 2 levels of space with clothing separated upstairs. The sizes are organised separately on each rack. And well displayed by range such as dresses, skirts, activewear etc.Downstairs where you enter on street level is a range of items. Manchester, sporting, homewares, bric a brac, books, kids space ( sorted into books, toys etc) craft & many other items. There are also new items handmade to be purchased. This is a cancer charity business with its main aim to support those going through cancer diagnosis & treatment.They did have a markdown area where all clothing was $2. Pricing itself appeared to be all over the place. While pursuing the racks, listening to the people who work there, it appears they have tried to put in place a pricing system, but not sure a blanket approach works for everything. Regardless of my personal opinion, the money goes to a worthy cause & I still found a couple of good buys worth the trip.Parking is available onsite conveniently immediately next to building.Staff were extremely helpful & very pleasant to be served by.

This place is amazing! Staff great & goods for sale well priced. No bad smell or bugs around. Goods turnover is quick. Such a worthwhile charity helping people in Brisbane and totally volunteer run.

Good little op shop and items are very reasonably priced.

My daughter and I shop at the Zillmere Op Shop quite regularly and find it to be one of the better, if not the best Op Shop, in the Northern Brisbane suburbs. The Volunteers who work at this shop are friendly and helpful, whilst the quality and obviously carefully selected merchandise make shopping here a pleasure.

Loved loved loved this store! I came with my husband and 2 of my daughters and we all were overwhelmed with how wonderful this store was! Amazingly low prices, very organized areas, clear pricing and lovely accommodating staff... We got many bargains including art for $7.50 that had a price tag of $150 initially, sports equipment for $4 that retails for at least $60 and they even had a wonderful array of handmade items for sale which is always lovely for gifts etc. We then went home satisfied and fueled to give, so filled our car full of stuff we no longer need or use to donate to them and I now we won't donate anywhere else. To support a breast cancer charity when it is something our family has gone thru multiple times, it felt like it was meant to be. We are looking forward to our next visit and we are still putting things aside to donate at our next trip past. Thank you to all the staff for such a wonderful job you are doing, I just wish I knew about your store before now because I would have been coming for years...
