@JaneBxx Jane would it be possible to talk with you re a large research project we are doing around the future of live performance/music in the UK? Follow me and I can DM details if interested?

[Will P Saunders MBE @willpsaunders]

@guyshrubsole That is already quite helpful thank you. Having read your articles about University ownership of land I was imagining you may have some valuable contacts but completely understand if you feel you may not be able to help. We will find a way…

@guyshrubsole - guy I help run a village cricket team which is about to celebrate being 200 years old. We want to have a second ground for youth/girls cricket but the land is owned by Oxford University Trust and nobody is talking to us. Can I email you for some advice?
