Ingrid, I am really interested in this both from a Bristol perspective and on behalf of the DC10plus authorities (which includes Birmingham). Unfortunately, I am not available on the dates you suggest (it is indeed a rubbish time :-)
I will see if we can find another rep.
Also, are you engaging with CLG's Digital Inclusion Team on this?
regards
