If I was cleaning that, I would use a small bursh, a damp thin cloth, and a pin/lid of a biro

A cotton swab would also be good for those hard to reach places. Also canned air would blow out any of the loose dirt.

In the end I used a small brush with hard bristles over all of the keys. I then used a hoover with a t shirt over the nozzle to prevent loss of any loose parts to remove extra dust. A can of compressed air would have been the job for it. Anyway it's alot better now than it was.
Cheers.
