The School remembers Bob Holman
The School of Social Policy is proud to have known and to have worked with Bob Holman who has recently passed away.
It was with great sadness that the School of Social Policy learned of the death of Bob Holman, a former member of staff at the University. Bob was truly inspirational to everyone who met him – kind, gentle and passionately committed to living his life in a way that made a difference to people. The School was so proud when Bob received an honorary degree from Birmingham, and when he received a lifetime achievement award at this year’s Social Worker of the Year awards.
Bob’s obituary in the Guardian gives just a small flavour of his immense contribution, and the School is proud to have known and to have worked with him.
