The business was subsequently floated on the London Stock Exchange under the name Wolstenholme Rink International PLC. Paul became Managing Director and Chairman of the business sharing the latter role with his brother Tony until his untimely death.
In 1989 Paul was a founding member of the Blackburn Groundwork Trust, a charity whose aim is the regeneration of the Blackburn and Darwen area. Paul was Chairman of the Trust for over a decade. In 1994, Paul was awarded an OBE on the recommendation of Prince Charles for service to Blackburn and the environment. In 2008, Darwen Council paid tribute to Paul's contribution in putting the environment on the business and industrial agenda by naming a street in the town Paul Rink Way. Paul was also a director of the Bolton Lads and Girls Club Foundation.
Paul was a committed member of the Freemason community, celebrating over 50 years in the brotherhood and reaching high office at national level.
