It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Tim Dawson (ON 1959-1966).
Tim passed away at a clinic near his home in Agonac, France, on 2 August 2024.
We are grateful for his contributions to the life of @NottsHigh

I earned a Foundation Scholarship to @NottsHigh in 1941. My time there shaped my future, I went on to secure a scholarship to study Chemical Engineering at the University of Birmingham.
Being an ON & a donor is my way of paying it forward.
