Burnley Express paint a great picture of Community RePaint Burnley

SPE Furnishings, who run our Community RePaint scheme in Burnley, are integral to supporting their local community.

Every sale from SPE Furnishings supports their work in the community. Read the article from the Burnley Express ‘Dream is to end food poverty in Burnley’ to read about all the hard work they do.

📣We're excited to share some amazing statistics 📣We're excited to share some amazing statistics from the Community RePaint network for 2024!📣 Across the UK, our member organisations are rescuing paint from waste and redistributing it to homes and community spaces. Instead of ending up as landfill, this paint is helping to brighten lives—356,800 lives in 2024, to be precise. Last year, we diverted 366,538 litres of paint from landfill, the equivalent of 990,500kg of CO2! We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved – but there's a lot more paint to save, and more rooms to paint too, so help us on our mission to end paint waste today! 🌍🎨♻ Links in Bio. #PaintItForward #Sustainability #BrighteningLives Dulux
So how does paint reuse actually work? Well, our n So how does paint reuse actually work? Well, our nationwide network of members collect in paint to save it going to waste and stock it in their shop at an affordable price. It's paint from projects, homes, shops and manufacturers - all sorts of types and colours and in full or part-full tins. This means anyone can buy paint for a bargain price, and save it from incineration or landfill. Better for people, pockets and the planet. Hoorah! These legends are from Community RePaint Bradford, but there are loads all over the UK! Search for your nearest branch on our website (link in bio!)
