I worked with Nick in the RVC eMedia team for many years. He was an enthusiastic and inspiring leader, willing to listen to any idea and always absolutely full of them himself. Nick collaborated far beyond the RVC to make valuable and innovative veterinary resources that were created by many and available to all. He put students at the heart of designing, producing and evaluating projects, well before that was fashionable. Nick was also a caring manager who gave his time freely and told us to put personal welfare before work. He will be greatly missed.
