• We are also regular users of central facilities, with beamtime at the synchrotrons at Daresbury (funded by CCLRC, previously by EPSRC) and at Bessy in Berlin (EU-funded access). We have also used the ISIS neutron source at Didcot and the ESRF synchrotron at Grenoble and had EU-funded access to the NMR facility at the CRMHT at Orléans.
  
  
• Minor grants were awarded by industry, the Royal Society, and from various internal UWA sources.
