I am a Sustainable Development PhD at the University of St Andrews. I became interested in the Transition movement during my undergraduate degree in St Andrews and wanted to see Transition here. I am still involved with Transition University of St Andrews, particularly on developing a bike maintenance and rental scheme and raising the profile of our new LETS.
