It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of David Arthurs who passed away peacefully on 21 October 2015.
David started working for the University in 2000 and has been an academic skills tutor in the School of Human and Health Sciences since 2001, where he created and developed the Learning Quality Support Unit. Over the past 15 years he has supported many, many students and colleagues developing their academic skills and confidence. Of equal importance, David was a well-respected tireless UCU (The University and College Union) representative and Dignity at Work officer. His contribution to the life and development of the University will be greatly missed.
