As items of material aid continue to run down at Clayton, VBRRA will open the warehouse on two Saturdays this month to help move the remaining goods.   Second hand clothing, toiletries, used books, blankets and bed linen make up the majority of what's now left at Clayton. Parts of the warehouse now clear of material aid have been leased to other companies.

The Clayton Warehouse will be open from 10am to 2pm on Saturday 20 and 27 March for those wishing to access material aid.

With all remaining stock expected to have run down by late March, the warehouse will close in April - with any remaining stock of second hand clothing sent out to regional distribution points at Marysville and Pheasant Creek or to the Salvation Army and St Vincent de Paul.

Blue referral card holders can access material aid from the following locations: the Kinglake Neighbourhood House, Marysville, Pheasant Creek, Hurstbridge Relief Centre and Diamond Valley Baptist Church. The Salvation Army still have Relief Centre's operating in Whittlesea and Traralgon.
