Chloe herself is equally thrilled!<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m honoured that you\u2019ve invited me to be patron of the Plain English Awards. I can see the huge potential in the Plain English Awards, and commend you for what you\u2019ve achieved in the past 14 years. The Awards\u2019 goals of making plain English a natural part of everyday business and government communication is something I strongly support.<\/p>\n
