Community Repaint Network

The Community Repaint Network is an opportunity for households, business, schools to get involved in recycling paint. It’s about £2 per litre. Money made is used to fund the project. For larger painting schemes, buy remanufactured paint from a Community Repaint Network Recolour Scheme.

Just select I need paint or I have leftover paint and follow the options from there. They are looking for voluntary sector organisations to set up schemes in the North East and hope to offer a range of volunteering opportunities. The nearest schemes are in County Durham, Darlington and Middlesbrough.
