About us
Who we are
FRP’s vision is of a world in which everyone is able to live sustainably through being knowledgeable and enthusiastic about caring for the environment.
Our mission is to promote low-cost, sustainable living through reusing and recycling goods and possessions. Our activities and services help people find practical, accessible, inclusive, and realistic ways of pursuing this goal, thereby encouraging self-sufficiency and minimising waste.
Today FRP delivers activities including:
- The Paint Place – one of the largest collectors/resellers of surplus and reclaimed paint in London
- Green Office – a service offering collection and disposal of waste paper (including confidential waste), and selling of recycled paper
- Reclaimed scaffold boards – collection and direct sale of reclaimed scaffold boards to members of the public, and small-scale manufacture and resale of furniture using reclaimed wood products
- Community engagement - including Give or Take events whihc encourage exchange of surplus good as a local level, and support for budding social entrepeneurs through 'meanwhile' initiatives
