B&Q operates a community re-use scheme through all its stores. The scheme is in place to donate unsellable products and materials for re-use by local schools, other educational institutions, and community groups, for the benefit of the local community and the environment.

Eligible groups include:

• schools and colleges,

• childminders, playgroups, and nurseries,

• allotment associations, community gardening projects,

• Youth groups, including Scouts, Guides, and cadets,

• Registered charities,

• Hospices,

• Conservation groups including The Conservation Volunteers and Forest Schools,

• Community projects organised by local churches and other religious groups,

• Women’s Institute, Lions Clubs, Rotary, Townswomen Guilds, Royal British Legion,
