Its members include such companies as Accenture, BBC, Barclays, Sky, The Body Shop, BP, British Airways, DHL, The FA Premier League, Royal Mail, Sainsbury's, Tesco and Zurich.

The McNaughton Group's application to join CRG was approved by its board of members following what was described as an extensive assessment process.

James McNaughton's membership was based on being able to demonstrate its commitment to business responsibility and its continuing corporate responsibility agenda and environmental activities.

Howard Browning, McNaughton's director for corporate responsibility, commented: "We were very proud to be accepted as members of the CRG, as it gives us a great opportunity to be directly involved with like minded companies focused on delivering a more responsible approach to business.

We've already cut our total carbon emissions by 30 per cent, reduced our energy usage by 20 per cent and made significant progress in other areas, thanks to the total support of our colleagues throughout the group." The CRG provides a forum for discussion on corporate responsibility issues and brings together corporate responsibility practitioners from a range of business sectors, whilst enabling members to talk across commercial divides, share their experiences and develop strategic thinking.
