[Centre] draft

Mon Sep 5 15:22:10 CEST 2011

Thanks Sean,

I'm forwarding this to Sussex folks as I'm not sure they're on the mailing
list, and may provide useful input to this and subsequent drafts - Ed on
the policy front, for example, as he's just got back from travels.

Jointly tuning the 150 remaining words on the letter of support template
for The Keep, and drafting another one for Sussex PVC Research signature.
Mute on the way as you mention, hopefully Arjo Ghosh as well.

Amelia Wakeford (cc'd), from our grants and contracts office, is happy to
liaise directly with Clare as needed to relay costs for Sussex input to
whatever extent the project can accommodate.

Best
