We offer our sincere condolences to the family of Dr Kerry Moore who sadly passed last Friday.
Kerry was an exceptional academic, colleague and friend, and will be sorely missed by all of us in JOMEC and those who had the privilege to know her or work with her.
So sad to hear of the passing of
#CardiffGrad

We send our condolences to all who knew and loved her, and to our wider English Literature and Journalism Alumni family.
