So what is Twitter?
Twitter is an information network that connects you to the latest stories, ideas, opinions and news about what you find interesting. Simply find the accounts you find most compelling and follow the conversations.
At the heart of Twitter are small bursts of information called tweets. Each Tweet is 140 characters long, but don’t let the small size fool you—you can discover a lot in a little space. You can see photos, videos and conversations directly in Tweets to get the whole story at a glance, and all in one place.
Why do we need it?
To let more people know what we do at The Centre, how we can help them and inform people about fundraising and events.
Twitter at The Centre
We will be having a twitter button added to the front page of the website in due course which you can click on and see what is being said.

Milton Park survey
Each year we ask people who work at Milton Park to complete a survey to help us learn more about their ideas and what they think can be improved across the park. Changes you may have already noticed from previous survey are the new road signs, landscaping and a change in layout in Café Metro.
I ask you to kindly circulate this amongst your staff. All entries will be given the opportunity to enter our free prize draw to win some fabulous prizes including an Apple iPad mini, Amazon Kindle or new Apple iPod Nano.
A comprehensive response to this survey will provide useful feedback and aid us in understanding how best to serve you and your employees, thus ensuring the quality of life for occupiers and business efficiency is maintained at the highest level.
