We are sad to announce the passing of Beryl Nelms in January 2026. Her daughter writes....
Mum was an enthusiastic student, graduating in 1948. Dancing was her speciality and she continued to enjoy interpretive dance until her late 90s, appearing on the cover of Classic Music Magazine dancing with soloists from the Philharmonia Orchestra. We also enjoyed many family skiing and rambling holidays, so her college training served her well. Career-wise she was an excellent administrator and journalist. A few years ago, she helped with the college archive collection and organised her own 90th birthday party. She and I were delighted to attend the 2022 Degree Ceremony. She hated her name Beryl and called herself Annabel from the late 1980s.
