Green Motion features in The Commonwealth at 70: From Westminster to the World in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the Commonwealth

Green Motion are delighted to announce the publication of the prestigious book, The Commonwealth at 70: From Westminster to the World.

Produced by publisher St James’s House and the History of Parliament Trust, The Commonwealth at 70: From Westminster to the World was officially launched at Westminster Abbey on 25 June 2019.

The signing of the London Declaration in 1949 heralded the birth of the Commonwealth of Nations. Exploring the build-up to this major moment in modern history and the Commonwealth’s development and influence over the past seven decades, The Commonwealth at 70: From Westminster to the World is a thought-provoking and beautifully designed hardback book.

Researched and written by leading academics and co-authored by royal correspondent Robert Jobson, this heavily illustrated publication features archive prints, maps and portraits that detail the story of one of the world’s most important and far-reaching international organisations.

The History of Parliament Trust is a research project that is creating a comprehensive account of parliamentary politics in England, then Britain, from their origins in the 13th century. The trust is regarded as one of the most ambitious, authoritative and well-researched academic projects in British history.

St James’s House is an award-winning custom publisher that has produced official publications for The Queen’s 90th Birthday celebrations, the Thames Diamond Jubilee, the Prince Philip Trust Fund, the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force.

Richard Lowden, Green Motion's CEO and Founder said, "We are honoured to have been invited to work with the History of Parliament Trust who in celebration of the founding of the Commonwealth 70 years ago, created this wonderful book covering the history of the Commonwealth over time.

"As part of their initiative they reached out to businesses throughout the Commonwealth who are focused on not only developing within the region but also and more importantly are dedicated to sustainability. It is my absolute pleasure to see Green Motion featuring within the publication; I am extremely proud of the achievements of my team at Green Motion International, as well as those of our entire franchise network, which is now operational in over 400 locations across over 40 countries both in the Commonwealth and worldwide."

"Green Motion is proud to be a British founded brand which has expanded all over the world, promoting focus on the environment and sustainability as our core values."
