Gift wrapping for you

Noosa Civic Shopping Centre is helping give back to the community with a charity gift wrapping service available from now until Saturday 4pm.
For just a gold coin donation, shoppers can have their mum’s perfect present covered in a selection of luxurious gift wrappings with all proceeds going to the Beautiful You organisation.
Beautiful You in a not-for-profit program that helps local women going through cancer treatment.
Founder Debbie Clayton said Beautiful You helps women in a range of ways including one-on-one support for newly diagnosed women, home services for patients and hand-made beanies for women undergoing cancer treatment.
“We also provide gift bags in hospitals right down to Brisbane,” Debbie said.
“Women who are undergoing surgery, when they wake there is a gift bag there for them.”
Debbie said her ultimate dream is to create a retreat for women who are going through the challenge of cancer.
“I want to set-up a retreat for women so it’s somewhere to go when they’re not feeling 100 per cent,” she said.
“It’s a place for time out from everything.”
Debbie said she is looking for anyone who can help her realise her dream such as providing land, sponsorship or even a building that could be used for the retreat.
Anyone who is able to help is asked to contact Debbie on 5445 5455 or email admin@beautiful-you.com.au.
The Beautiful You charity gift wrapping service will be available from Thursday to Saturday, 7-9 May, from 9am to 4pm outside Williams the Shoeman at Noosa Civic Shopping Centre.
