Dear Chris,
Many thanks for your fascinating note. I'm forwarding to fellow centre members - and we'll get back to you shortly.

Dear Professor Keeble,
I read with interest the BBC article. In the BBC description there is
reference to the setting up of other such enterprises but no details.
I took early retirement from The University of Salford two years ago,
now teach part time at Manchester Metropolitan University and would be
pleased to offer time and effort pro bono to a project offering higher
education to those who are intimidated by financial worries.  I live in
North Wales.
I came from a large and poor family and had to leave school at 16 to add
to the family income. The personal commitment of college and university
tutors allowed me to move through an environmental health professional
career, an academic progression through my MSc , PhD and a final career
as an academic. I can think of no better way of saying, "Thank You" to
those people than by offering to continue their work outside the
restricted higher education conventions.
Is it possible for you to put me in touch with any active individuals in
this area of the world?
Thank you
Christopher J. Harris
