ReadyStart

A hidden gem in Whittington

ReadyStart provides quality affordable pre-loved clothing. Whether you want to look good for a job interview, a party, or just needing an affordable wardrobe makeover, we can get you looking the part for only a few dollars.

There are lots of unique finds at Readystart: pre-loved women’s, men’s and children’s clothing and accessories, bric-a-brac, homeware, succulents (occasional), and more!

When you support ReadyStart, you help provide on the job training and work experience to people living with disabilities in Geelong.

Encompass ReadyStart relies on in-kind support from the local community.

Each July, we partner with WorkSafe and Bay 93.9 for the ‘Clothing the Community’ campaign. We ask the community to clean out their wardrobes and donate clothing for winter. These donations are used to assist families experiencing temporary disadvantage.

You can also get involved by volunteering your time to help in the store, donating quality pre-loved clothing and accessories, organising donation pick ups or providing a tax deductible donation.
