Community reuse scheme (B&Q)
Description:
B&Q operates a community reuse scheme through all stores.
The scheme is in place to donate unsellable products and materials for re-use by local schools, other educational institutions and community groups, for the benefit of the local community and the environment. These items are donated on the understanding that they will be re-used or disposed of responsibly if they are not used.
Eligible groups include:
- Schools and colleges
- Child minders, playgroups and nurseries
- Allotment associations, community gardening projects
- Youth groups including scouts, guides and cadets
- Registered charities
- Hospices
- Conservation groups including The Conservation Volunteers and Forest Schools
- Community projects organised by local churches and other religious groups
- Women's Institute, Lions Clubs, Rotary, Townswomen's Guilds
- Royal British Legion
- Adult education projects, University of the Third Age
- Other local community groups.
Please note that these are unsellable items. B&Q cannot guarantee the suitability for re-use, and they do not donate items to individuals.
For more information please follow the link to their website, or contact your local store and speak to a duty manager.
