Glidden reveals Paint and a Pint shortlisted pubs
The pubs battled it out against around 150 nominated independents from across the country to be selected as a finalist in the competition, which is run by one of the UK’s leading trade paint brands, Glidden Trade.
As well as a £5,000 transformation, the winning pub will receive expert colour and paint advice, and money towards a re-opening party. To give a further boost to local businesses, Glidden Trade will arrange for all the redecoration work to be completed by a professional painter and decorator from the area.
Two second place prizes of £750 worth of Glidden Trade paints are also on offer and three runners up will each receive £150 worth of paint from the brand.
The winners of the ‘Paint and a Pint’ competition will be announced toward the end of November.
