We won’t lie to you; things are little bit hectic at LINC HQ just now.
Not that we’re complaining, it’s all exciting, worthwhile stuff we’re
doing, but there is quite a lot of exciting, worthwhile stuff to do.

Throughout 2009, we spent a lot of time
asking you about our work and whether you’re happy with how we get
information out to you.Through questionnaires online and in

all sorts of interesting stuff, not only about the things you like about
our work, but also things you’d like to see us do differently....

we want it, especially as our little web monkeys are taking off for a
well-earned holiday after today, but needless to say we’ll get there
eventually...

made better and what might make you more likely to get involved...
