Redford commission

8 February 2016

Catherine Redford, our Outreach Fellow, was typically busy last week. She visited Chelmsford County High School for Girls and Great Baddow High School before dashing back to Oxford to welcome Westcliff High School for Boys.

Later this week she’ll be meeting potential applicants at the Universities Fair in Camden. In the course of her travels, Catherine learnt that she has been commisssioned to write an Introduction to the Gothic Novel, so there’s every chance that her research in that area will play an even greater part in the academic sessions she provides.

Prepare to be scared, potential applicants, very scared… but only in a literary way!
