As CWT has no paid scientific staff at present we hope you will find answers to most of your questions in this section. Please read it carefully before you decide to contact us with a specific query.
How can I find out more information about the work that CWT does?
The best way of finding out about the work of the trust is to read the publications that have been produced. These should all be self-explanatory and provide all the information you need about each topic area and how any recommendations were put together. You can also look at the news section of the website.
What if I have a particular query about how any of the information in the reports was compiled?
You should be able to find out all the information you need in each publication if you read it carefully.
What if I want someone from the Trust to give a talk or make a presentation about the work of the trust?
It is unlikely that anyone from CWT will be able to do this at present, but please email us in the first instance
I am a journalist and I would like someone from the trust to comment on a story
