So, the last few weeks have been… challenging. We’ve lost, for now, the member of the Politics admin team responsible for sending out our offer communications (get well soon, Suzanne!) and then flu struck down her replacement – who we were frantically training in our new super-personalised communication systems. In fact, in a rolling programme, flu and colds have been working their way through all the admin staff. Even I, dear reader, was not unaffected, coming down with ‘man flu’ for a few days last week. Hopefully, everything is now back on track, and communications will start flowing again – apologies if we’ve not been in touch with open day information as quickly as we’d have liked.
