Forest Recycling Project (FRP)

Forest Recycling Project (FRP) is a charity in Waltham Forest, working with local people to reduce environmental impact since 1989. 

We sell reclaimed paint which is always cheaper and always hugely better for the environment than buying elsewhere. 

We work with the building industry and our volunteers to reclaim and repurpose scaffolding boards in our carpentry workshops, and sell these for things like shelves and planters. 

We work with fashion and textiles businesses to reclaim fabrics that we sell in our shop and upcycle them into beautiful fits. 

We run inclusive volunteering programmes that people are welcome to join. 

We also have a paint warehouse site and we run the Walthamstow Tool Library which are separate listings.

Please visit us on a Friday or Saturday when our shop is open, or contact us to find out more.
