About Us
CRGS Green Movement Team
Everyone in the team was involved in making CRGS greener, to a greater or lesser extent. Primarily, this fell to Edward and Jack, but the contributions of the rest of the team should not be overlooked. We all felt this was a strong part of the project, and thus assisted each other wherever we could.
