In terms of handling:
The front goes light on acceleration - I've loosened the slipper which helps but should I add more weight, how much?
The font end seems soft/under damped on jumps
It grip rolls fairly easily - the sping adjusters and shock ends are wound right down at the rear so can't adjust the ride height further but the car still rides higher than most at the rear
Under/over steer isn't really an issue, or not until I cure the grip roll!
thanks for the advice

Move the shocks to outer hole on the wishbone. Harder oil in the front. And probably a harder oil in the back, so say 32.5 front and 25 rear.
Try that first
I would say you have the right amount of weight on the front so so with regards to it going light under acceleration I would either add some limiters in the shock at the front to remove some droop (although you might loose quite a bit of droop by moving to outside hole on the wishbone)
There is always the anti squat mod where you remove the back of the battery tray on the chassis and then raise the front pivot block by adding some spacers underneath. That will add Anti-squat which should decrease the back end squatting under acceleration and also will help the back end rotate in tight corners.
