Thanks to all.
After a few hours more searching and experimentation, I found the
following that seems to work fine regardless of charset:

<xsl:text disable-output-escaping="yes">&amp;nbsp;</xsl:text>

Someone suggested that this only works for MS tools?  But that's no
problem, as we only support Microsoft.

Any reason we shouldn't use this?

Thanks again

Simon
