Leyland and Dulux raise over £18,000 for charity

​​​​​​​Following a two-week fundraising initiative across Leyland’s London network of decorating stores, £18,430 was donated to homeless charity, St Mungo’s

From 1–14 December 2025, Leyland and paint brand AkzoNobel pledged to donate £2 for every tin of Dulux Trade or Dulux Heritage (750ml or larger) sold in-store and online across the network of Leyland stores in London.

The campaign saw strong support from tradespeople and DIYers, helping to generate vital funds for services supporting people experiencing homelessness.

The cheque was formally presented to St Mungo’s at the newly opened Leyland Tower Bridge Road store, marking both the success of the campaign and the retailer’s continued investment in the local community.

St Mungo’s has been on the frontline of homelessness in London for over 55 years and also runs services in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, Brighton, Bristol, Oxford and Reading.

Martin Hastings, CEO of Leyland, said: “We’re incredibly proud to have raised over £18,000 for St Mungo’s through this campaign. With 36 Leyland stores across the capital – including the recent opening of our Tower Bridge Road store – we’re firmly rooted in these communities. Seeing our customers come together to support such an important cause shows the positive impact our industry can have.”

St Mungo’s also runs a construction skills programme, giving people access to accredited training in painting, wallpapering, plumbing, dry lining, and more, opening doors to secure employment and long-term stability.
