Fond Goodbyes

This week we say a final farewell to Jane Beeley, who retired last year but has been working with us on the bank for the past six months, winding down. We also say goodbye to David Copsey, Head of Library and Knowledge Services, who retires on 31st March. They will both be missed and we wish them well.

Cheers Jane and David!
