Hi Ashley,
We had an university student intern with us for a few months last
summer, Kate Davison, who was writing a dissertation on political
cartoons. She worked with us on digital learning programmes and helped
research a podcasting workshop. I contacted her and she would be happy
to chat with you. You can reach her at [log in to unmask]
Best wishes,
Shelley
Digital Learning Manager,
