So sad to wake up to this news today. Lord Bob was a true inspiration to everyone that he met. A great chair, amazing mentor to me and will truly miss him. Only last week we were texting and him sharing his knowledge. My love to Anne today and his amazing family. – at Yorkshire and The Humber, England
We are deeply saddened by the death of our Chair, Lord Bob Kerslake, and send our love and condolences to his family. A true advocate for the arts and Sheffield, and a long-standing supporter, Lord Bob Kerslake became Chair of Sheffield Theatres’ Board in November 2015.
