CGX is an environmental, inclusion and employability charitable social enterprise aiming to grow flourishing community by engaging volunteers in helping people with disadvantages into sustainable employment by working together on environmental projects of benefit to the wider community. We operate three inclusive workshops - CGX Cycle Works, Restoration Works and Appliance Works - in which people of diverse capabilities can participate in the repair, refurbishment and recycling of donated goods.
