On 25th October, the University of Hertfordshire has named a new student residence Maclean Court after me. I was one of 3 alumni to be chosen for this great honour. Diane has been awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts by the university.

A stainless steel sculpture in which is entwined a forged and painted snake, gives the classical medical symbol of Asclepius’ Staff a contemporary interpretation. Commissioned for the new Centre for Medicine at University of Leicester, the sculpture is currently being displayed at Highcross to help raise awareness and funds for the project which will be completed in the autumn.
