Mission Australia’s social enterprise retail outlet, Big Heart, is due to open its first Sydney location in Campbelltown this November.Big Heart was established in the Illawarra 19 years ago to help raise funds for local Mission Australia services.
What originally began as a traditional 'op-shop' venture has grown into five retail outlets (throughout Illawarra and Shoalhaven), ten full-time staff members and more than 150 volunteers that provides more than just high quality, low cost clothing and furnishings to the public.
Big Heart also gives unemployed people on-the-job training in industries including warehousing, upholstery, retail and administration.
Big Heart’s Campbelltown branch will incorporate Mission Australia’s south western Sydney financial counselling services in the one location to ensure long-term sustainability of the service.
The proposed location will be on the corner of Campbelltown Road and Harbord Street. Final contact details will be updated in October.
