Is it cake or leftover paint, ready for reuse? 🎂♻ We love this cake, created by @alisons_bakery for Community RePaint Nottinghamshire's 10 year anniversary! 

The county council first joined the Community RePaint Network in June 2011 and operates a paint reuse scheme at four recycling centres. Nottinghamshire residents can drop off their leftover paint (providing they are registered to use Nottinghamshire County Council’s Recycling Centres), and recycling centre staff will prevent good quality, reusable paint from going to disposal.

The paint is then redistributed to individuals, charities and community groups for free, to help brighten homes and community spaces.
