Monte Christo (MC) is a project by ECC for a transition to Community-oriented market gardening and regenerative farming on permaculture principles, beginning in 2022. The immediate project aims to develop opportunities for NDIS participants and community members to engage in inclusive gardening activities to grow vegetables for their own use at a low cost. Included therapeutic benefits of moderate exercise and healthy outdoors exposure in a social setting are proposed. A further aim is to develop larger permaculture farming with the long-term goal of providing quality, environmentally sustainable, healthy nutrition at reduced cost to people on low incomes.

Our recent Supermarket Tour was a huge success! Participants walked the aisles with our Health & Nutrition Coach, Kathryn Mayne, learning how to read labels, understand ingredients, compare products, and choose lower-carb options that support their health goals.
The session was hands-on, practical, and confidence-building — and we made sure there were great choices for every budget.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!

A former Paralympian’s fight to keep essential NDIS supports exposes a stark legal imbalance in Administrative Review Tribunal appeals. Participants must battle for basic care while the Agency spends tens of millions on lawyers to defend cuts. This warped priorities: money flows to litigation, not dignity, safety, or timely corrections. Australia needs accessible legal help for participants and a fairer, faster review system that protects lives, not budgets, right now.

St Vincent de Paul Society is not-for-profit, lay Catholic organisation. Every cent made in our Vinnies Shop Network goes towards supporting those who need it most. We invest in people, community, and genuine sustainability.

While we strive to keep prices affordable, the costs involved in sorting, recycling, and responsibly disposing of unsellable donations, along with rising landfill levies and limited overseas recycling markets, mean that operating responsibly in Australia is often more costly compared to manufacturing cheap new products overseas.

Vinnies Shops are more than just stores - they’re a force for good, creating second chances for pre-loved goods and hope for families doing it tough. Thank you to our dedicated Members, volunteers, generous donors, and loyal shoppers. You are the hands and hearts behind everything we do.
