Hi Folks. We wanted to give an update for our process of eventual reopening. As we all know it will not be business as usual. We are following all of the COVID related business rules around social distancing and masks. Our store capacity is limited to 10 customers at a time. We will not be using the front door as our entrance. It is the side door to the rear that will be the entrance and customer will exit out the front door. Customers will be required to take a basket that w...ill be at the entrance. This will assist us in monitoring the number of customers in the store. We will be sanitizing the baskets for each customer. We would like people to use debit as much as possible. We know that people have been anxious for the store to reopen but we are concerned about line ups and traffic. We can promise you that we have a great deal of merchandise sorted and ready to replenish the shelves. We have been putting all donations in a 72 hour holding area before they are sorted. We would strongly suggest that if you see an lengthy line up that you shop another day. We don't want people out in the heat for long periods of time. We will have hand sanitizer at the entrance for everyone to have access to . We will be strictly enforcing the mask wearing. No mask, no entrance. We work with a high risk population and need to be very diligent about COVID prevention. We are planning on opening in the next 2 weeks. The store hours will be Tuesday to Friday 10-3:00. This is to allow for extensive sanitation after the store closes. The change rooms are currently closed. We are excited to be back up and running and ask for everyone's patience as we work through these challenging times See more

After further consideration we are making the decision to close the centre tomorrow. Our thrift stores will be closed as well. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Please be advised we will be closing the store at 2:00 today. Stay safe.

To say we are grateful for the Community Support is an understatement. However, we would like to update some guidelines for donation drop offs as the amount is a tad overwhelming since Covid has closed our doors and we are playing catch up to support our reopening and programs.. 1) Please we cannot accept mattresses and box springs( we do not have storage) 2) Drop offs are Sunday and Monday only until otherwise posted. 3) Items need to be in plastic bags if possible, no lo...ose clothing. We have limited staff and extra steps to take with Covid and we are trying our best to upkeep , so we ask if you can hold your generous donations until Sunday and Monday, we would very much appreciate it!! Once again thanks for your understanding and support!

We are beyond words with the response from our community to our Social Enterprise Thrift stores Noras New to You and Noras 2. We surpassed all of our expectatio...ns! We missed you and you missed us. We are so proud of the hardworking people who have been behind the scenes making this possible. A special thank you to Paul Finney for everything hes done for us. Another shout out to Joe Peck for offering us desperately needed storage space. We have certainly been hit hard financially at Haleystreet by all of the ramifications from COVID but we see a bright future. We would never have what we do without our amazing and generous community donors and supporters. We are proud of the community we are in. See more

Due to unforeseen circumstances we have to close the store early today. We apologize for the inconvenience.

So excited for the great day we are having welcoming back our customers!!!So excited for the great day we are having welcoming back our customers!!!

Today is the day!10:00 am. Please remember to wear mask and social distance. Heat warning today so bring water if you want to wait in what we expect to be long lines. Rear door is now the entrance. Park in the back and enjoy. We have lots of great items and will be open from here on Tuesday to Friday.

A few updates. We are awaiting further information about any type of re-opening plan. There will be extensive planning needed to make sure we are as safe as pos...sible in our new reality. The new roof on our main facility at Haley street is almost finished being re-shingled and the next step is siding. The ground work for the new building continues. Each day there is more and more progress. A lot of people are asking about the re-opening of Noras New to You. We are still waiting for information provincially about our social enterprises. We have made one decision about accepting donations in our outside bins. We will be accepting donations that are in plastic bags on Sundays and Mondays. We will then leave the bags for 3 days as per direction from Dr Strang. After that time we will sort or move to our storage facility. We have exciting news about your donations. We are in the process of opening a second location for a thrift store Social Enterprise. We will be opening Noras 2 in the former Salvation Army location on Commercial st in North Sydney. All donations to Noras will now be shared between the 2 locations. In the next few months we hope to be able to collect donations at both sites, but for now we will process through our Sydney Mines location. We have closed our ReFind store in the mall. It is a very exciting venture for us and we are pleased to be part of the down town in North Sydney. We have access to parking in the lot behind the Scotia Bank parking lot. Staff have been slowly returning to our Haleystreet location and we are using this time for program redesign, renovations and deep cleaning. We are all anxious to get everyone back as this has been a rough few months for all of Nova Scotia. We are all in this together. See more

We have received information from the Dept. of Community Services today on the following procedures regarding the Covid-19 virus. Anyone travelling out of count...ry is to follow the 14 day quarantine before entering Haley Street, Nora's New to You Thrift Store, and ReFind. Anyone experiencing potential symptoms of Covid-19 is also to follow a 14 day quarantine before entering Haley Street, Nora's New to You and Refind. We serve many individuals with compromised immunity and in an effort to provide the safest environment for our participants this will be strictly enforced until we receive further recommendation from the government of Nova Scotia, or our funders the Dept. of Community Services. We are all in this together, so practical efforts to prevent the spread of illness is a positive step forward. We appreciate everyone's cooperation and understanding. We will provide updates as necessary.

We are sorry to say that our December Market has been cancelled. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause our vendors. This was a very hard decision fo...r our organization, due to Flea Markets on Sundays at the Mall, we are unsure of the traffic that we will get on Saturdays. Our store Re(Find) will now be open on Sundays rather than Saturdays also! We are unsure if our markets will resume in the new year at this point. But if so, we will be in touch.
