KEVIN STEEDS

• Cello regrets to announce that Kevin Steeds, the Group’s former Executive Chairman, died last night. Kevin became seriously ill in August 2008 at which time Mark Scott, the Group’s Chief Executive, assumed Kevin’s executive responsibilities.

  Mark Scott, Chief Executive commented:

  “Our thoughts are with Kevin’s family at this very sad time. He will be deeply missed by his friends and colleagues.

  “Kevin was a founding inspiration behind the formation of Cello four years ago and its emergence as a successful group of professionals. We intend to honour his memory by ensuring Cello is a continued and enduring success.”
