Hello.

It seems that the time which would suit the most people would be:

3pm, on Friday the 19th of January (this week).

Ian Steed has kindly offered us the use of the Humanitarian Centre meeting
room, so I suggest we meet there (pending confirmation that the room is
still available at this time and date - I will let you know if the venue
changes). To get to the Humanitarian Centre, please follow the directions on
their website: http://www.humanitariancentre.org/hub/public/contact.htm .
To get into the offices, you need to go through the Fenners leisure centre
entrance, which is behind the Kellsey Kerridge leisure centre near Parkers
Piece. Please don't hesitate to ask me if you have any questions, comments
or suggestions.

Emilia
