WIRF & King Edward Memorial Hospital Op Shop

Located on the lower ground floor of KEMH, the friendly volunteer run WIRF Op Shop stocks pre-loved clothing for babies and women.

All proceeds help our mission to support research for improved health of women, preterm birth and gynaecological diseases. The Women & Infants Research Foundation's (WIRF) Opportunity Shop at King Edward Memorial Hospital is a great place to grab a quality bargain or donate your nearly new baby and maternity items. Our Op Shop is located on the lower ground floor of the hospital near to the cashier. WIRF coordinates nearly 100 volunteers who work tirelessly to support the Foundation, the hospital and patients and Staff at King Edward Memorial Hospital. In addition to this, we have over 300 community knitters and sewers who make specialised garments for use in the hospital’s special care nursery, and comfort blankets for the oncology patients. Our Op Shop accepts pre-loved women's and babies clothing into a donation bin located outside the Op Shop. All donated, pre-loved items go a long way toward helping the patients of our hospital source much needed clothing for themselves and their babies, and assist WIRF to conduct essential research studies into women and infants health.

👏 A Big Congratulations to the WIRF Research Team

From all of us at the KEMH Op Shop, we’re thrilled to see the incredible work of the Women & Infants Research Foundation recognised in this BusinessNews feature, spotlighting their contributions to maternal and infant health.

From WA to the world, their research is delivering life-saving solutions, including:

• WA Preterm Birth Prevention Initiative – celebrated internationally for reducing preterm births
• Artificial Placenta Project – their most ambitious project yet, reimagining neonatal care for extremely premature babies
• Global research into antenatal steroid therapy – improving a critical treatment that supports lung development in babies at risk of preterm birth
• Early warning tests in development – identifying fetal hypoxia, fetal lung maturation, and infection risk

These breakthroughs reflect nearly 50 years of WIRF excellence, driven by a mission to improve health outcomes for women, babies and families everywhere.

We’re proud to support their mission through our Op Shop efforts - and even prouder to cheer on the scientists who are changing lives every day. 💛
