Description
Good Sammy is a social enterprise focused on providing meaningful employment opportunities and pathways for Western Australians with disability. Everything we do is motivated by this purpose, and has been since we were founded in 1958.
Our vision is a better future for people with disability and we believe creating inclusive workplaces is the foundation for an inclusive society.
At Good Sammy we offer a variety of structured development programs and employment choices to encourage people living with a disability to explore life. We empower people to make their own choices so they can identify their goals, feel connected to their community and be supported as they work towards independence and meaningful employment.
What we do
At Good Sammy we currently employ more than 265 supported staff in a variety of roles. Our 27 op shops, located from Albany to Geraldton, are the public face of our organisation and allow Supported Employees to explore opportunities in the retail industry, as well as process the generous donations we receive from the community. We reduce waste and help the environment by recycling 6 million kg of used goods each year and as an official collection organisation for the Containers for Change program.
Cannington Op Shop
Our Cannington store features a great range of second-hand handbags and a huge variety of Gold Seal clothing, along with the friendly and helpful staff. We’re also a bag drop location for the Containers For Change program! Bag and drop off your eligible containers, we'll count them and send you the refund contact-free.
Located just a stone’s throw away from Westfield Carousel Shopping Centre, our Cannington op shop can be found near the Canning River Reserve walking path and along the Albany Highway bus routes. Situated near other thrift stores, such as Salvos, Vinnies Shop and Save the Children, you can add our Cannington store to your next op shop crawl!
And remember, every time you shop with Good Sammy you’re helping to create meaningful employment opportunities and pathways for Western Australians with disabilities.
