Despite 2020 being a rollercoaster of a year, Community RePaint Cambridgeshire was thrilled to announce the opening of a second retail outlet for their scheme in Wisbech.

After the incredible success of Community RePaint Cambridgeshire located in March, the team expanded to sell ReColour paint in Wisbech. Community RePaint Cambridgeshire which has been operating since 2011, is now one of the largest schemes in the Network. Run by Cambridgeshire Community Reuse and Recycling Network (CCORRN), they collect around 30,000 litres of paint each year.

The new Wisbech store will sell “rescued resources creatively repurposed”, including DIY supplies, workwear, arts and crafts, furniture and remanufactured ReColour paint. In 2019, Community RePaint Cambridgeshire redistributed 47,735 litres of paint and happy to expand to Wisbech.

ReColour was started when we identified a need to reuse larger quantities of leftover paint,  increasing the amount of paint we can divert from the waste stream and meet the demand from the community for good quality affordable paint. The paint is available in over 18 colours and comes in 5 litres containers.

The Wisbech store is located at the Remo – Eco Superstore, 55 The Horsefair Shopping Centre, Wisbech, PE13 1AR. They are open from 10am to 4pm (closed Wednesdays & Sundays).
