Two people (obviously watching Sarah raven!) have contacted me to ask
where the best place to get a bulk order of wildflower mix for chalk
meadows. I know you can get small amounts from the standard seed
companies but where do they go for larger amounts of seed. 1 lady has
about half an acre she could sow.

Naturescape? I've had smaller batches of plug-plants from them in the
past that have been successful in an existing grass and wildflower area.
They do bulk seed mixes for larger sites too.

Or perhaps she could try a helpful local agricultural seed merchant.

When we began a wildflower meadow-garden from scratch a local agric seed
merchant very kindly advised on the best grass species to suit our soil
and purpose and made us up a batch even though they normally supplied
farmers for whacking great fields.
