Hi I was just wondering if you definitely need a hub spreader to get the dampers out of the front hubs or whether there was another way?

just a sump plug key or an allen key :)

Soft hide mallet will normally knock the upright down off the damper without too much hassle.

Agree with the above although when reluctant I have found that driving a small chisel/bolster into the gap with the pinch bolt removed helps a lot

I find a whack from a club hammer works perfectly well
