Bring your bars and levers back? So shorter stem and move your levers back if possible.

Ride on the hoods with arms slightly bent then take your hands off the bars. Are you collapsing forward or can you hold that position and pedal? If your arms are supporting your torso's weight instead of your core/back holding you up your arms are likely to lock out to keep you supported.

Right it would appear that the pain between my shoulders between neck and back is a result of my arms being quite straight putting me in to a slight shrug/ high shoulders position.
I can't quite work out why this is happening;
Do I prefer to ride with straight arms?
Is it due to not being flexible enough in my back/ hips?
So what's the best course of action?
