13-Oct-10: CPRE Gloucestershire Award

Another great day for the Greenshop Group as we win the prestigious Gloucestershire CPRE (Campaign for the Protection of Rural England) Award. Jane Powell, Roger Budgeon and Derek Hunt all represented the Greenshop Group with two of the architects from the RIBA award winning company, Architype, who designed the new group building. They all attended the ceremony on 13th October where the Group won the award for their new building in the ‘Buildings, new, restored or converted’ category. The judges thought that the building was a fine example of how a new building can be built with modern eco technology, yet still blend within a rural landscape. The design and the building both being excellent examples of using sustainable construction principles and methods.



We certainly do not take winning awards for granted and it is a great boost for everyone who works here, it comes after much hard work and determination. It is another award to decorate our walls and is now in pride of place for all to see as they enter the building. See if you can spot it when you next call in!
