Rachel Bland RIP
Sad to report the BBC presenter has lost her battle with breast cancer,she at least was able to achieve reducing the stigma about this horrible illness. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-45410652

Only 40 years old too and missed her son's 3rd birthday by a matter of days.

Re: Rachel Bland RIP
Its terrible news.
As the link mentions, she was alongside Tony Livesey
for a lot of her presenting, they just seemed to click together.
RIP.

Re: Rachel Bland RIP
Very upsetting story unraveled over the past few days - a fantastic broadcaster and had a great rapport with Tony Livesey on air.
Always thought TL made the step up from Radio Lancs with impressive comfort, but a part of that was working with some excellent female co presenters. She certainly came across as a very genuine character and naturally professional presenter.
I haven't listened to her Big C and Me podcasts but she certainly seems to have inspired a lot of people through them.
What a sad loss and at such a young age, RIP Rachael and thoughts for those she's left behind

Re: Rachel Bland RIP
Devastating news.
Also for anyone reading this thread that in anyway shape or form had a connection with Engineering @ Burnley College, my old Lecturer John Purdy died yesterday morning after a year and half battle with Cancer.
He was a top, top bloke and helped reignite some passion in my body for learning, after going back to college as an older student... He will be sorely missed as well.
