We were honoured to be shortlisted for Sustainable Business of the Year at the edie Sustainability Awards, alongside giants like Bupa, EDF Energy, and Siemens. Although we didn’t win, being recognised as a finalist is a huge achievement! 🌍 Our Project Possible initiatives have made a real impact, like being the first UK paint manufacturer to use 100% recycled plastic cans and achieving 79% recycled content in our packaging. Plus, we’ve set bold targets, like reducing emissions by 90% by 2026 and transitioning to 100% renewable energy. A big thank you to everyone who’s helped us get here. Let’s keep pushing forward! 💪 #Sustainability #GreenGoals #ProjectPossible

We’re excited to welcome Crown Paints, the Darwen-based paint manufacturer, as a Nightsafe Patron! 🙌 Crown Paints has been a long-time supporter of our mission to help young people facing homelessness. A few years ago, they stepped in to help transform our Anchor Avenue house into a home for five young people. Since then they’ve worked on multiple projects, including refreshing our Day Centre, and brightening up our Witton residence. Not only have they donated thousands of litres of paint through their community paint donation scheme, but they’ve also supplied us with essential accessories like brushes and rollers, ensuring our spaces remain welcoming for the young people we support. Russell Kitchen, who has worked at Crown for 37 years, said: “I would definitely recommend supporting Nightsafe as a Patron. The charity gives you a warm feeling and makes such an impact on the lives of young people at risk of homelessness.” Thank you Crown Paints for your incredible generosity and continued support! 💙
