Office systems and web technologies, must include:

This will be done with the next bullet point. You may have to use your own gmail or hotmail to complete this. You will email myself and two of our bosses: victoria.henson@wrecltd.co.uk and colin.brown@wrecltd.co.uk and chris.lewis@wrecltd.co.uk
Your tutor will include a screenshot of one of the emails above showing proof of being sent.
