Dear readers,

When reading the newspaper, it has become the norm to read stories of unemployment, state handouts and benefit fraud. In an age where those who don’t work are rewarded more than those who do, it is often the case that people who work hard every day are left ignored.

Theodore Roosevelt once said: “Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” In this issue of the magazine, we celebrate the work of inspirational companies as they set about changing the ways in which we work and live. We now invite you, readers, to join us as we applaud those who are working hard to build our future.

If your company specialises in green construction, or sustainable products, we'd be particularly keen to promote your work. Please e-mail any press releases or feature suggestions to editorial@romauk.net.
