The Paint Reuse Network of Ireland is delighted to announce that our paint giveaway is now open!

Does a community space near you need some TLC? Our Colour to Communities paint giveaway brightens community spaces while reducing waste. We’re thrilled to offer this opportunity for community groups and organisations to win free paint.  If you’ve got a community space in mind and a design up your sleeve, simply enter for a chance to win high-quality, water based, reused paint and stop it from going to waste.

Terms & Conditions

Submissions will be judged internally by the Paint Reuse Network based on three criteria:

• Relevance of the project to the local area
• Involvement of the local community
• Feasibility of the proposal

Three submissions will be successful – one in each of Ireland’s National Waste regions:

• Eastern and Midlands Region
• Southern Region
• Northern and Western Region

Who can apply?

• Schools
• Community Groups eg. Tidy Towns, Men’s Sheds, Growing Groups
• Charities 
• Social Enterprises

Successful submissions will be awarded 100L of water based paint to implement their proposed project, along with Polyvine in order to make the paint outdoor-safe. Colour batches will be a minimum of 5.6 litres in volume. Winners may request up to 8 colours in total. Winners should be able to collect paint prizes from their closest Paint Reuse Network Member.

Closing date for applications is the end of April 2025.
