Bradite donates 30 litres of paint to women’s refuge charity
Posted: Tuesday, April 23rd, 2024
A UK refuge for survivors of domestic abuse is to receive a makeover thanks to a donation of paint from Bradite, according to Painting & Decorating News. I Choose Freedom is a small independent charity that runs three refuges dedicated to supporting women and children who have been affected by domestic abuse. One of the properties, a former old peoples’ home, provides a safe environment for 40 children and 19 women, plus staff. The extensive main lobby area needed a complete repaint. “There’s a lot of traffic through there, and lots of sticky little hands, as you can imagine,” says Fundraising and Relationships Manager Sophie Colletti. “It’s important that this is a space that is bright and cheery.” Bradite has donated 30 litres of One Can, its all-in-one primer, undercoat, and finish, for the project. Being water-based, the paint has very low odour, which is an important consideration in a residential environment. The repainting is being carried out by a team of volunteers.
