 According to the Charity Commission, the administrative contact for Global Futures was [[Ellen Raphael]] who, at the time [[Sense about Science]] was established, also worked for [[Regester Larkin]] alongside former Monsanto PR man [[Harry Swan]]. (Raphael also studied in Frank Furedi's department at the University of Kent, Canterbury.) Raphael has subsequently joined Brown at [[Sense about Science]] as Assistant Director. One of Global Futures' two trustees was [[Phil Mullan]] (aka [[Phil Murphy]]). Mullan, a central member of the RCP and a regular contributor to LM, is also the registrant of the [[Spiked]] website which was set up in 2000 by LM's ex-editor [[Mick Hume]]. Global Futures' other  trustees included [[Michael Fitzpatrick]] (aka [[Mike Freeman]]), another RCP/LM stalwart. Fitzpatrick is also a trustee of [[Sense about Science]].
