Dear Arena Friends -- I wrote to you a month or so ago to seee
if you could help us. At Focus we are trying to pull together a
staff policy and it would be really helpful if we had an idea of
what other similar organisation offer for salary, housing
allowances, leave, health care and so on. I would really
appreciate any assistance. Thanks and best regards, Nicola
Bullard
