VILLAGERS are painting the town red following the launch of a recycling scheme.
The Rookhope Rural Repaint scheme has been set up by St Aidan's Community Trust to recycle paint.
Based in a small depot near Rookhope Village Hall, the trust is appealing to people to donate paint for redistribution to groups, charities and voluntary organisations free.
As well as helping the community, the scheme is designed to reduce waste and help the environment.
To request or donate paint, call Chris Jones on (01388) 517215.
